Data-driven adaptive mesh refinement for enhanced FE-DIC in the presence of cracks

Global Digital Image Correlation (DIC) allows for accurate characterization of fracture phenomena through robust kinematic registrations. The displacement discontinuity can be trustfully highlighted using a finite element mesh, whereby the…

An Agentic Interface for End-to-End Probabilistic Seismic Hazard and Risk Analysis

Probabilistic seismic hazard and risk analyses are backbone to building codes, insurance pricing, and disaster management. Yet their open-engine pipelines remain accessible primarily to experts. We present the first agentic interface to the end-to…

Augmenting single-lead ECG interpretation through QRS waveform decomposition and rotation

Objective. The single-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is widely used in watches and other wearable devices, with proven efficacy in cardiac rhythm interpretation. However, for morphological ECG interpretation, multiple viewpoints (leads) are generally…

Methodology

Design and analysis of computer experiments for numerical modeling of mechanized tunneling-induced settlements using surface monitoring data

Pressurized-face TBMs, such as EPB machines, are designed to limit ground movements, but excavation still induces deformations that propagate to the surface as settlements, potentially affecting structures. Controlling these settlements relies on…

Graph Surrogate Modeling for Closed-Loop Microscopic-Macroscopic Control of Mixed Traffic

We propose a graph neural surrogate framework that replaces the macroscopic partial differential equation solver inside a closed-loop mixed-autonomy traffic-control architecture, while preserving the coupling between scales. Microscopic human-driven…

Assessment of the potential loss of durability of reinforced concrete under climate change - Impact of the evolution of environment parameters on carbonation of concrete

The construction sector faces the dual challenge of reducing greenhouse gas emissions while ensuring the long-term durability of structures in a changing climate. Among the degradation mechanisms affecting reinforced concrete, carbonation is…
