Argonne: Where AI research meets education and training
Last September, in the Chicago suburb of Lemont, Ill., Argonne National Laboratory hosted its first AI STEM Education Summit. More than 180 educators from high schools, community colleges, and universities; STEM administrators; and experts in various disciplines convened at “One Ecosystem, Many Pathways–Building an AI-Ready STEM Workforce” to discuss how artificial intelligence is reshaping STEM-related industries, including the implications for the nuclear engineering classroom and workforce.

Fatigue crack propagation rates at 24, 427, and 593°C were not affected by specimen thickness within the range 7.6 to 25.4 mm. Also, singleedge-notch cantilever and compact tension specimens gave comparable crack growth rates for a given stress intensity factor range. Crack growth behavior was analyzed with respect to fracture mechanics criteria.
