👋 Hi, there! I am Yan Chen (陈炎), an Assistant Professor and Master’s Supervisor at [Xi’an Jiaotong University] (西安交通大学)(https://www.xjtu.edu.cn/). My research focuses on integrating advanced mechanical analysis with artificial intelligence tools to develop innovative solutions for real-world engineering problems. I specialize in multi-scale mechanical analysis - from quantum mechanics (DFT) and molecular dynamics to continuum mechanics and phase-field modeling - to bridge the gap between theoretical research and practical engineering applications.

Recent researches:

• 🔬 Continuum mechanics modeling of micro/nano composites with microstructural considerations
• 🌡️ Environmental effects on entropic elasticity and conformational mechanics of low-dimensional materials
• 🦾 Bio-inspired design of composite materials for enhanced fracture and fatigue resistance
• 🤖 Development of intelligent design platforms for materials and structures driven by both data and mechanical principles

Recent Achievements:

• 📚 I have published more than 30+ papers in top international journals Notable publications include：
  • Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids (4 papers)
  • Nature Communications
  • Nano Letters (2 papers)
  • Engineering Fracture Mechanics
• 🏆 Awards and Honors:
  • Type-A Young Elite Talent Award, XJTU
  • Youth Talent Support Program, Xi’an Association for Science and Technology
• 💻 One registered software copyright (LayerMech V1.0)
