# Stress Engineering Literature

This dataset is a compilation of research articles that contain information on stress strain properties. The articles were scraped from the publishers Elsevier, Springer Nature, and Wiley. The plain text content was extracted using the `reader` package in [ChemDataExtractor](https://github.com/CambridgeMolecularEngineering/chemdataextractor2).

This resulting text dataset contains approximately 1.2 billion tokens and was used to pre-train domain specific BERT models. 

See the [associated paper](https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jcim.4c00857) for more details.
