🧪 The anti-dogbone!
Can we design tensile specimens that give richer data for ML-based constitutive modeling?
🔧 Non-uniform shapes
📊 Stress-state diversity metric
🎥 Displacement mapping via CV
🎯 More stress–strain coverage per test

I am thrilled to share the good news to receive the prestigious NSF Faculty Early Career Award! Thank you, NSF and reviewers, for valuing my research and education idea! I appreciate all the help from my mentors, colleagues, and students. Looking forward to the next 5 years!🤘>>>
🤘Horns way up for @jyang526 on winning a 2025 @NSF CAREER award! He will investigate fracture propagation – the formation of cracks or fractures – in soft viscoelastic materials that are used in a wide variety of engineering and biomedical applications: ae.utexas.edu/news/jin-yang-…

Researchers challenged longhorn crazy ants and humans with the same task: maneuvering a T-shaped object through two consecutive open doorways. Single humans always outperformed single ants, but ant groups could beat human groups. In PNAS: ow.ly/5vat50UwZAo

Imagine an olympic diver but it's an air jet! Zou et al. explore the dynamics of air jet cavities during water entry! They reveal unique cavity behaviors, the impact of dual Froude numbers, and the absence of surface seals. More @ go.aps.org/4gLQGdZ #fluiddynamics

Rui @RuiHuangUTAus and I have just completed a draft of a textbook titled—
Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Polymers
The book is limited to reversible thermodynamic processes of polymer networks. We would value your comments.
Please kindly retweet.
