What Do Large Language Models Know About Materials?

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
If large language models (LLMs) are to be used inside the material discovery and engineering process, they must be benchmarked for the accurateness of intrinsic material knowledge. The current work introduces 1) a reasoning process through the processing–structure–property–performance chain and 2) a tool for benchmarking knowledge of LLMs concerning ...

Effect of Cu and CuP Additions on the Microstructure and Nanoindentation‐Based Fracture Behavior of CoNiAlSi Ferromagnetic Shape Memory Alloys

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Cu and combined Cu–P microalloying refine the microstructure and enhance the nanoindentation‐derived fracture resistance of CoNiAlSi ferromagnetic shape memory alloys without suppressing the martensitic transformation. Comparative SEM, DSC, and nanoindentation results reveal that the CuP‐containing alloy provides the most balanced response, achieving ...

The Evaluation of Disasters

Journal of MultiDisciplinary Evaluation, 2005
In the last few years, we have seen some mighty catastrophes on the face of the earth, some wrought by human hands directly and others from great national disasters. We must ask, what has evaluation contributed to aiding humankind cope with these events,

Natural disasters and their aftermath [PDF]

International Psychiatry, 2006
The chronic trauma endured by the people of Iraq, Darfur and Zimbabwe is a subject regularly brought to our attention in the UK by the news media. The mental health risk attributable to living in a situation in which each day brings the threat of more disruption, another risk to life and limb, the loss of people you love, perhaps of your home, is great.

Bone‐Inspired Recyclable Composites for Damage‐Tolerant Circular Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bone‐inspired architected composites are developed by combining osteon‐like reinforcements with a recyclable Elium thermoplastic matrix. The hierarchical architecture redirects cracks and promotes energy dissipation, while enabling recovery of intact, aligned, load‐bearing reinforcement units that retain their original stiffness, revealing a route ...
