Description:

Covers the field of multiscale modeling in solid mechanics, with particular emphasis on computational approaches. This book presents an introduction to the theories on which different multiscale approaches are based, with regards to linear homogenization as well as various nonlinear approaches.

Synopsis:

This unique volume presents the state of the art in the field of multiscale modeling in solid mechanics, with particular emphasis on computational approaches. For the first time, contributions from both leading experts in the field and younger promising researchers are combined to give a comprehensive description of the recently proposed techniques and the engineering problems tackled using these techniques.The book begins with a detailed introduction to the theories on which different multiscale approaches are based, with regards to linear Homogenisation as well as various nonlinear approaches. It then presents advanced applications of multiscale approaches applied to nonlinear mechanical problems. Finally, the novel topic of materials with self-similar structure is discussed.
