Title: Multifidelity linear regression for scientific machine learning from scarce data
“Gentleman of Science” L. Ben Freund passed away
World-renowned mechanician, Professor Freund at Brown University passed away on October 3, 2024. He was a member of the US National Academy of Sciences/Engineering and made significant contributions to mechanics research and the scientific community. Moreover, Prof. Fruend mentored many outstanding Ph.D. students including Prof. Yang Wei at Zhejiang University and my mentor Prof. Ares Rosakis at the California Institute of Technology. His famous works include two books: Dynamic Fracture Mechanics, Thin Film Materials co-authored with Subra Suresh.
