New AI‐Assisted Approach for Expanding the Solution Space: Application to Lattice Structure Design
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This work introduces an innovative framework for designing structured materials by ex panding the design space through reparameterization of qualitative variables into continuous structural descriptors. Combined with machine‐learning‐based prediction and multi‐objective optimization, the approach enables the discovery of novel lattice architectures ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Residual adhesive after electrode loading in adhesive‐assisted resistance spot welding is quantified through a traceable experimental‐to‐digital workflow. Chromatic confocal topography provides calibrated surface‐height data, while OpenCV detects the electrode imprint and integrates adhesive height into comparable volume metrics.

Symmetry breaking constraints for packing unequal circles into a minimal outer circle
Journal of Global OptimizationAbstract The paper addresses the problem of packing pairwise unequal circles into the circle of minimal radius centered at the origin. This problem with an additional balance condition is considered as well. The corresponding optimization models are highly nonconvex.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.CT‐based finite element simulations combined with in situ X‐ray computed tomography are used to analyze insert pull‐out in nickel‐coated polymer foams. Despite variations in material parameters, deformation consistently concentrates within a narrow annular region around the insert.
