Yue Yu, professor of mathematics at Lehigh University, has been named a 2025 recipient of the prestigious Gallagher Young Investigator Award by the U.S. Association for Computational Mechanics (USACM). This award recognizes Yu’s innovative contributions in numerical methods and AI-based physics modeling within computational mechanics, particularly her pioneering work in data-driven nonlocal models.

Some of the world’s most advanced AI systems struggle to tell the time and work out dates on calendars, a study suggests.
