arXiv:2606. 09037v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This study presents a large language model (LLM)-based multi-agent framework for interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) design optimization that mitigates limitations of conventional workflows: expertise-dependent problem setup and data preparation, the prohibitive computational cost of finite element analysis (FEA), and the unreliability of AI surrogates in unexplored regions.

arXiv:2606. 09037v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) design requires balancing conflicting objectives and multi-physics constraints, while modern optimization workflows face three bottlenecks: manual problem setup, high finite element analysis (FEA) cost, and unreliable surrogate-based search in sparse or out-of-distribution regions.

arXiv:2608. 07529v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as technical assistants, but their competence in solid waste management (SWM) remains difficult to assess because existing benchmarks emphasize general knowledge rather than professional decisions under engineering, environmental, and policy constraints.

arXiv:2606. 20950v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Executable evaluation -- checking the consequences of an agent's actions with a program rather than grading its prose -- has become a prominent way to assess tool-using AI agents in software settings.

arXiv:2607. 25675v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-space optimization adapts large language models (LLMs) by editing external natural-language artifacts rather than model weights, so the optimized artifacts remain inspectable and the model can be treated as a black box.

TO-Agents is a multi‑agent AI framework that translates natural‑language design intent into iterative topology optimization. It converts a human problem description into solver inputs, runs the optimizer, renders 3D topologies, and employs a judge agent to critique and revise results using multiview vision‑language reasoning. Evaluated on a cantilever beam and a phone‑stand design, the system achieved preference‑aligned designs in 60% of trials, outperforming an ablated pipeline by up to six times and enabling end‑to‑end intent‑to‑prototype design with additive manufacturing.

MoMHa is a system that optimizes large language model harnesses across three objectives—accuracy, behavioural safety, and token cost—using a single‑phase joint‑reward proposer. It outperforms alternative strategies on seventeen domains, including synthetic suites and real‑world benchmarks, achieving higher joint scores and better safety while reducing token usage. The approach demonstrates that multi‑objective harness design can transfer effectively to unseen models and tasks.
