👋 Hi, there! I am Yan Chen (陈炎), an Assistant Professor and Master’s Supervisor at Xi’an Jiaotong University. 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)
