Fatigue Test Rig No More: Simulating Bulldozer Strength
Chinese Academy of Sciences

In a first for the construction industry, researchers have developed a virtual vibration test rig (VTR) capable of simulating the fatigue life of dozer push arms with unprecedented accuracy. This cutting-edge solution offers a cost-effective and time-efficient alternative to traditional physical testing, allowing for more precise predictions of component durability. With the potential to streamline the entire testing process, this innovation could dramatically transform how construction machinery is evaluated and enhanced.

Making Difficult Quantum Many-Body Calculations Possible
Department of Energy, Office of Science

One of the methods scientists use to study quantum many-body systems is the ab initio approach, but some ab initio methods run into severe computational problems when using realistic interactions. This study introduces wavefunction matching and uses it to perform lattice simulations with realistic interactions. This allows scientists to make calculations that were once impossible.
