TIP-INN: A thermodynamics-informed machine learning framework for the mechanical behavior of rocks

Abstract Modeling the mechanical deformation of geological materials across relevant thermodynamic conditions and dynamic processes remains a fundamental challenge in Earth sciences. Conventional rheological models rely on isolated disciplinary approaches and hard-coded iterative...

Lightweight concrete in modern construction: advancing sustainability, efficiency, and innovation

Abstract Lightweight concrete (LWC) has emerged as the most promising material in sustainable construction, this is due to its reduced weight, superior thermal insulation, and acoustic performance. This review explores the key properties, types, applications, and challenges of LW...
