文摘Over-the-air computation(AirComp)enables federated learning(FL)to rapidly aggregate local models at the central server using waveform superposition property of wireless channel.In this paper,a robust transmission scheme for an AirCompbased FL system with imperfect channel state information(CSI)is proposed.To model CSI uncertainty,an expectation-based error model is utilized.The main objective is to maximize the number of selected devices that meet mean-squared error(MSE)requirements for model broadcast and model aggregation.The problem is formulated as a combinatorial optimization problem and is solved in two steps.First,the priority order of devices is determined by a sparsity-inducing procedure.Then,a feasibility detection scheme is used to select the maximum number of devices to guarantee that the MSE requirements are met.An alternating optimization(AO)scheme is used to transform the resulting nonconvex problem into two convex subproblems.Numerical results illustrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed scheme.

文摘The integration of physics-based modelling and data-driven artificial intelligence(AI)has emerged as a transformative paradigm in computational mechanics.This perspective reviews the development and current status of AI-empowered frameworks,including data-driven methods,physics-informed neural networks,and neural operators.While these approaches have demonstrated significant promise,challenges remain in terms of robustness,generalisation,and computational efficiency.We delineate four promising research directions:(1)Modular neural architectures inspired by traditional computational mechanics,(2)physics informed neural operators for resolution-invariant operator learning,(3)intelligent frameworks for multiphysics and multiscale biomechanics problems,and(4)structural optimisation strategies based on physics constraints and reinforcement learning.These directions represent a shift toward foundational frameworks that combine the strengths of physics and data,opening new avenues for the modelling,simulation,and optimisation of complex physical systems.

文摘This paper investigates the capabilities of large language models(LLMs)to leverage,learn and create knowledge in solving computational fluid dynamics(CFD)problems through three categories of baseline problems.These categories include(1)conventional CFD problems that can be solved using existing numerical methods in LLMs,such as lid-driven cavity flow and the Sod shock tube problem;(2)problems that require new numerical methods beyond those available in LLMs,such as the recently developed Chien-physics-informed neural networks for singularly perturbed convection-diffusion equations;and(3)problems that cannot be solved using existing numerical methods in LLMs,such as the ill-conditioned Hilbert linear algebraic systems.The evaluations indicate that reasoning LLMs overall outperform non-reasoning models in four test cases.Reasoning LLMs show excellent performance for CFD problems according to the tailored prompts,but their current capability in autonomous knowledge exploration and creation needs to be enhanced.
文摘In this study,the flow characteristics around a group of three piers arranged in tandem were investigated both numerically and experimentally.The simulation utilised the volume of fluid(VOF)model in conjunction with the k–ɛmethod(i.e.,for flow turbulence representations),implemented through the ANSYS FLUENT software,to model the free-surface flow.The simulation results were validated against laboratory measurements obtained using an acoustic Doppler velocimeter.The comparative analysis revealed discrepancies between the simulated and measured maximum velocities within the investigated flow field.However,the numerical results demonstrated a distinct vortex-induced flow pattern following the first pier and throughout the vicinity of the entire pier group,which aligned reasonably well with experimental data.In the heavily narrowed spaces between the piers,simulated velocity profiles were overestimated in the free-surface region and underestimated in the areas near the bed to the mid-stream when compared to measurements.These discrepancies diminished away from the regions with intense vortices,indicating that the employed model was capable of simulating relatively less disturbed flow turbulence.Furthermore,velocity results from both simulations and measurements were compared based on velocity distributions at three different depth ratios(0.15,0.40,and 0.62)to assess vortex characteristic around the piers.This comparison revealed consistent results between experimental and simulated data.This research contributes to a deeper understanding of flow dynamics around complex interactive pier systems,which is critical for designing stable and sustainable hydraulic structures.Furthermore,the insights gained from this study provide valuable information for engineers aiming to develop effective strategies for controlling scour and minimizing destructive vortex effects,thereby guiding the design and maintenance of sustainable infrastructure.
文摘Machine learning(ML)has been increasingly adopted to solve engineering problems with performance gauged by accuracy,efficiency,and security.Notably,blockchain technology(BT)has been added to ML when security is a particular concern.Nevertheless,there is a research gap that prevailing solutions focus primarily on data security using blockchain but ignore computational security,making the traditional ML process vulnerable to off-chain risks.Therefore,the research objective is to develop a novel ML on blockchain(MLOB)framework to ensure both the data and computational process security.The central tenet is to place them both on the blockchain,execute them as blockchain smart contracts,and protect the execution records on-chain.The framework is established by developing a prototype and further calibrated using a case study of industrial inspection.It is shown that the MLOB framework,compared with existing ML and BT isolated solutions,is superior in terms of security(successfully defending against corruption on six designed attack scenario),maintaining accuracy(0.01%difference with baseline),albeit with a slightly compromised efficiency(0.231 second latency increased).The key finding is MLOB can significantly enhances the computational security of engineering computing without increasing computing power demands.This finding can alleviate concerns regarding the computational resource requirements of ML-BT integration.With proper adaption,the MLOB framework can inform various novel solutions to achieve computational security in broader engineering challenges.

文摘Configuring computational fluid dynamics(CFD)simulations typically demands extensive domain expertise,limiting broader access.Although large language models(LLMs)have advanced scientific computing,their use in automating CFD workflows is underdeveloped.We introduce a novel approach centered on domain-specific LLM adaptation.By fine-tuning Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct on NL2FOAM,our custom dataset of 28,716 natural language-to-OpenFOAM configuration pairs with chain-of-thought(CoT)annotations enables direct translation from natural language descriptions to executable CFD setups.A multi-agent system orchestrates the process,autonomously verifying inputs,generating configurations,running simulations,and correcting errors.Evaluation on a benchmark of 21 diverse flow cases demonstrates state-of-the-art performance,achieving 88.7%solution accuracy and 82.6%first-attempt success rate.This significantly outperforms larger general-purpose models such as Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct,DeepSeek-R1,and Llama3.3-70B-Instruct,while also requiring fewer correction iterations and maintaining high computational efficiency.The results highlight the critical role of domain-specific adaptation in deploying LLM assistants for complex engineering workflows.Our code and fine-tuned model have been deposited at https://github.com/YYgroup/AutoCFD.

文摘Within the prefrontal-cingulate cortex,abnormalities in coupling between neuronal networks can disturb the emotion-cognition interactions,contributing to the development of mental disorders such as depression.Despite this understanding,the neural circuit mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain elusive.In this study,we present a biophysical computational model encompassing three crucial regions,including the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex,subgenual anterior cingulate cortex,and ventromedial prefrontal cortex.The objective is to investigate the role of coupling relationships within the prefrontal-cingulate cortex networks in balancing emotions and cognitive processes.The numerical results confirm that coupled weights play a crucial role in the balance of emotional cognitive networks.Furthermore,our model predicts the pathogenic mechanism of depression resulting from abnormalities in the subgenual cortex,and network functionality was restored through intervention in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.This study utilizes computational modeling techniques to provide an insight explanation for the diagnosis and treatment of depression.

文摘With the rapid growth of socialmedia,the spread of fake news has become a growing problem,misleading the public and causing significant harm.As social media content is often composed of both images and text,the use of multimodal approaches for fake news detection has gained significant attention.To solve the problems existing in previous multi-modal fake news detection algorithms,such as insufficient feature extraction and insufficient use of semantic relations between modes,this paper proposes the MFFFND-Co(Multimodal Feature Fusion Fake News Detection with Co-Attention Block)model.First,the model deeply explores the textual content,image content,and frequency domain features.Then,it employs a Co-Attention mechanism for cross-modal fusion.Additionally,a semantic consistency detectionmodule is designed to quantify semantic deviations,thereby enhancing the performance of fake news detection.Experimentally verified on two commonly used datasets,Twitter and Weibo,the model achieved F1 scores of 90.0% and 94.0%,respectively,significantly outperforming the pre-modified MFFFND(Multimodal Feature Fusion Fake News Detection with Attention Block)model and surpassing other baseline models.This improves the accuracy of detecting fake information in artificial intelligence detection and engineering software detection.
文摘Thoracic reconstructions are essential surgical techniques used to replace severely damaged tissues and restore protection to internal organs.In recent years,advancements in additive manufacturing have enabled the production of thoracic implants with complex geometries,offering more versatile performance.In this study,we investigated a design based on a spring-like geometry manufactured by laser powder bed fusion(LPBF),as proposed in earlier research.The biomechanical behavior of this design was analyzed using various isolated semi-ring-rib models at different levels of the rib cage.This approach enabled a comprehensive examination,leading to the proposal of several implant configurations that were incorporated into a 3D rib cage model with chest wall defects,to simulate different chest wall reconstruction scenarios.The results revealed that the implant design was too rigid for the second rib level,which therefore was excluded from the proposed implant configurations.In chest wall reconstruction simulations,the maximum stresses observed in all prostheses did not exceed 38%of the implant material's yield stress in the most unfavorable case.Additionally,all the implants showed flexibility compatible with the physiological movements of the human thorax.
