Flaschel, Moritz (author), Kumar, Siddhant (author), De Lorenzis, Laura (author)We extend the scope of our recently developed approach for unsupervised automated discovery of material laws (denoted as EUCLID) to the general case of a material belonging to an unknown class of constitutive behavior. To this end, we leverage the theory of generalized standard materials, which encompasses a plethora of important constitutive...journal article 2023

(author), Wagemaker, M. (author)High-entropy alloys/compounds have large configurational entropy by introducing multiple components, showing improved functional properties that exceed those of conventional materials. However, how increasing entropy impacts the thermodynamic/kinetic properties in liquids that are ambiguous. Here we show this strategy in liquid electrolytes...journal article 2023

Singh, Diwakar (author), Sharma, S. (author), Kumar, Rajeev (author), Chauhan, Vishal S. (author), Vaish, Rahul (author)Although conventional actuators like piezoelectric and electrostrictive are efficient, but they required hard wiring, which contaminates the control signal and adds to the weight of the structure. The current study presents a wireless control strategy using photostrictive actuators. Owing to the fortunate combination of photovoltaic effect...journal article 2023

(author), Wagemaker, M. (author)Developing liquid electrolytes with higher kinetics and enhanced interphase stability is one of the key challenges for lithium batteries. However, the poor solubility of lithium salts in solvents sets constraints that compromises the electrolyte properties. Here, it is shown that introducing multiple salts to form a high-entropy solution,...journal article 2023

Zheng, Li (author), Karapiperis, Konstantinos (author), Kumar, Siddhant (author), Kochmann, Dennis M. (author)The rise of machine learning has fueled the discovery of new materials and, especially, metamaterials—truss lattices being their most prominent class. While their tailorable properties have been explored extensively, the design of truss-based metamaterials has remained highly limited and often heuristic, due to the vast, discrete design space...journal article 2023
