A model for the simulation of Kirkendall voiding in metallic materials is presented based on vacancy diffusion, elastic-plastic and rate-dependent deformation of spherical voids. Starting with a phenomenological explanation of the Kirkendall effect...

Learn the anatomy of the mouth including child and adult dentition, the palate and the oral cavity. Clear, clinically focused explanations for medical students and professionals.
The continued improvements in the predictive accuracy of machine learning models have allowed for their widespread practical application. Yet, many decisions made with seemingly accurate models still require verification by domain experts. In additio...
Video-based AI systems are increasingly adopted in safety-critical domains such as autonomous driving and healthcare. However, interpreting their decisions remains challenging due to the inherent spatiotemporal complexity of video data and the opacit...
The widespread usage of machine learning (ML) in a myriad of domains has raised questions about its trustworthiness in security-critical environments. Part of the quest for trustworthy ML is robustness evaluation of ML models to test-time adversarial...

Many supervised machine learning methods have revolutionised the empirical modelling of complex systems. These empirical models, however, are usually "black boxes" and provide only limited physical explanations about the underlying systems. Instead,...
I've spent nearly 20 years repairing liquid/water damaged electronics. More specifically, cell phones. In the old days, we'd open the phones up, clean the corrosion, resolder, etc. Recently, they've (...
This manuscript contains a summary of the latest physics results from PHOBOS, as reported at Quark Matter 2006. Highlights include the first measurement from PHOBOS of dynamical elliptic flow fluctuations as well as an explanation of their possible...
Tournaments are widely used models to represent pairwise dominance between candidates, alternatives, or teams. We study the problem of providing certified explanations for why a candidate appears among the winners under various tournament rules. To t...
As the complexity of multi-robot systems grows to incorporate a greater number of robots, more complex tasks, and longer time horizons, the solutions to such problems often become too complex to be fully intelligible to human users. In this work, we...
Well established libraries typically have API documentation. However, they frequently lack examples and explanations, possibly making difficult their effective reuse. Stack Overflow is a question-and-answer website oriented to issues related to softw...
Research in cultural evolution aims at providing causal explanations for the change of culture over time. Over the past decades, this field has generated an important body of knowledge, using experimental, historical, and computational methods. While...
Natural philosophers employ “theoria” to denote systematic explanations of celestial and terrestrial phenomena (e.g., “theoria motuum coelestium”). The term begins to contrast more sharply with …
The first sentence of Leo Tolstoy's novel Anna Karenina is: "Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." Here Tolstoy means that for a family to be happy, several key aspects must be given (such as good health of al...
In Amazing numbers in biology, Flindt reports a giant, 128 meter-tall eucalyptus, and a 135 meter-tall sequoia. However, the explanation of the maximum altitude of the crude sap ascent and consequently the main reason of the maximum size that trees c...
