A Bio‐Inspired Perspective on Materials Sustainability

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This perspective discusses natural materials as inspiration for sustainable engineering designs and the processing of materials. First, circularity, longevity, parsimony, and activity are presented as essential material paradigms. The perspective then uses many examples of natural and technical materials to introduce principles such as oligo ...

SciAgents: Automating Scientific Discovery Through Bioinspired Multi‐Agent Intelligent Graph Reasoning

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The SciAgents AI model drives hypothesis generation by harnessing multi‐agent graph reasoning, extracting insights from knowledge graphs constructed from scientific papers. Each agent plays a specific role: the Ontologist defines concepts, the Scientists draft and refine proposals, and the Critic reviews.

Effects of Silicon on Mechanical Properties and Fracture Toughness of Heavy-Section Ductile Cast Iron

open access: yesMetals, 2015
The effects of silicon (Si) on the mechanical properties and fracture toughness of heavy-section ductile cast iron were investigated to develop material for spent-nuclear-fuel containers. Two castings with different Si contents of 1.78 wt.% and 2.74 wt.%

Propagation of Elongated Fluid-Driven Fractures: Rock Toughness vs. Fluid Viscosity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
This paper studies the effect of the rock fracture toughness on the propagation of elongated fluid-driven fractures. We use the `tough PKN' model of Sarvaramini and Garagash (2015), an extension of the classical PKN model(Perkins and Kern, 1961; Nordgren, 1972), which allows for a non-zero energy release rate into the advancing fracture front(s).

The Structure‐Mechanics Relationship of Bamboo‐Epidermis and Inspired Composite Design by Artificial Intelligence

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This article investigates the micromechanics of bamboo epidermis, focusing on how anisotropic silica particle distributions enhance toughness. By integrating experimental imaging, 3D printing, and generative AI, the study develops bio‐inspired particle‐reinforced composites with mechanical properties akin to bamboo.
