Why Scientific Research Must Uphold the Four Essential Criteria:Reflections on Significance,Necessity,Originality,and Feasibility

中文摘要英文摘要

在科研活动日益活跃、学科交叉不断深化、人工智能快速进入知识生产过程的今天,重新讨论"什么样的研究才是真正高质量的研究",已具有突出的现实针对性.本文认为,科学研究必须坚持重要性、必要性、创新性和可行性"四性".其中,重要性回答"是否值得做",必要性回答"为什么必须做、为什么是现在做",创新性回答"究竟推进了什么",可行性回答"能否在科学、技术、工程、经济和应用约束下真正成立并转化".四者不是彼此孤立的标签,而是从问题提出到成果形成的逻辑闭环.在当前科研实践中,一些偏差尤其值得警惕:以期刊标签和影响因子替代问题判断,以国际热点和"三大刊"为导向倒置研究逻辑,把局部变化包装成创新,把缺少对象约束、制造基础、成本考量、寿命评估和应用场景匹配的研究构想成"前沿突破".尤其在人工智能、大数据和自动化科研快速发展的今天,研究表达更容易显得完整,研究结果更容易被快速生成,研究构想也更容易被精致包装,坚持"四性"因而不是降低效率的保守要求,而是防止科学研究在形式繁荣中偏离问题本身、需求本身和质量本身的基本前提.对于《应用数学和力学》而言,重申"四性"还意味着进一步明确办刊重心:以力学为落脚点,以工程目标为牵引,以应用数学提供方法支撑.

Presently,scientific research is becoming increasingly active,interdisciplinary integration is deepe-ning,and artificial intelligence is rapidly entering knowledge production,reconsidering what truly constitutes high-quality research has become a matter of immediate practical relevance.This paper argues that scientific re-search should uphold four essential criteria:significance,necessity,originality,and feasibility.Significance asks whether a study is worth pursuing;necessity asks why it must be undertaken and why now;originality concerns what substantive advance it makes;and feasibility asks whether its outcomes can truly stand and be translated under scientific,technical,engineering,economic,and practical constraints.These four criteria are not isolated labels,but form a logical chain from problem formulation to the establishment of credible results.Several tendencies in current research practice deserve particular caution:replacing judgment on scientific problems with journal labels and impact factors,reversing research logic by chasing international trends and top-tier journals,packaging marginal variations as originality,and presenting ideas that lack object constraints,manufacturability,cost awareness,durability assessment,and application compatibility as"frontier break-throughs."In the age of artificial intelligence,big data,and automated research,results can be generated fas-ter,appearances of completeness can be produced more easily,and ideas can be packaged more persuasively;reiterating these four criteria is therefore not a conservative reaction against new tools,but a basic safeguard a-gainst the deviation of scientific judgment by formal abundance.For Applied Mathematics and Mechanics,reaf-firming the four criteria also means clarifying the journal's orientation:mechanics should remain the point of application,engineering goals the central guide,and applied mathematics a source of essential methodological support.
