arXiv:2607. 16583v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Kirigami turns stiff sheets into compliant, shape-morphing structures, but its reliance on periodic cut patterns comes at a cost: correlated panel rotations couple extension to shear, so stretching one axis drives a parasitic shear that cannot be suppressed, and also confine anisotropic stiffness to a narrow, discrete set of responses that cannot be tuned independently.
arXiv:2607. 14475v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Disordered metamaterials feature microstructures with inherent randomness and irregularity, enabling them to achieve broader property coverage and superior performance unavailable in their regular counterparts.
arXiv:2606. 28996v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Short-fiber thermoplastic (SFT) composites are increasingly employed in lightweight aerospace and automotive structures owing to their favorable strength-to-weight ratio, high production rates, and recyclability.
arXiv:2602. 17750v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A key problem of solid mechanics is the identification of the constitutive law of a material, that is, the relation between strain history and stress.
arXiv:2606. 10909v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reconstructing local stress fields in heterogeneous microstructures under non-linear, history-dependent loading remains a major computational bottleneck in multi-scale simulations.
arXiv:2603. 28707v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present a physics-based neural network framework for the discovery of constitutive models in fully coupled thermomechanics.
arXiv:2608. 03927v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Engineered Skeletal Muscle Tissues (ESMs) have become a key structure for biomedical disease modeling and pharmacological screening, yet their functional characterization often relies on simplistic metrics like peak force, discarding critical kinetic information.
arXiv:2606. 05199v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The identification of constitutive neural network models from heterogeneous full-field deformation data provides a robust alternative to traditional calibration methods based on homogeneous stress-strain experiments, particularly given the high dimensionality of trainable parameters.
arXiv:2607. 04123v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inverse design of mechanical metamaterials seeks a periodic unit cell whose homogenized elastic properties meet a prescribed target, but current learning-based methods are data-hungry, mostly interpolative, and provide no guarantee that the generated design satisfies the specification.
arXiv:2605. 23967v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In biological systems, sensing is not performed by the brain alone: the body deforms, vibrates, and filters external stimuli before they are transduced into neural signals.
arXiv:2606. 14565v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Constitutive artificial neural networks (CANNs) provide interpretable material model discovery, but have so far been used in stress-supervised settings based on apparent stress-strain data from homogeneous tests.
arXiv:2607. 06479v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) provide a promising framework for solving partial differential equations while embedding the underlying physical laws directly into the learning process.
arXiv:2607. 16631v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Translating unstructured clinical prescriptions into patient-specific foot orthoses (FOs) is hindered by a semantic-physical misalignment: high-level clinical intent is not mapped deterministically onto the 3D geometric parameters of the orthosis, and existing design workflows remain dependent on manual expertise with no instantaneous biomechanical validation.
