The morphological characterization of aggregates or agglomerates using image analysis is
an increasingly active area of research, whether in the chemical, environmental or civil …

Multiscale simulations are demanding in terms of computational resources. In the context of
continuum micromechanics, the multiscale problem arises from the need of inferring …

Effective properties of functional materials crucially depend on their 3D microstructure. In this
paper, we investigate quantitative relationships between descriptors of two-phase …

We investigate volume-element sampling strategies for the stochastic homogenization of
particle-reinforced composites and show, via computational experiments, that an improper …

In this work, a 3D pore network model (PNM) is introduced for modeling reaction-diffusion
phenomena, with and without coupled heat transfer, in a spherical porous catalyst particle …

Small-angle scattering of either x-rays (SAXS) or neutrons (SANS) is one of the few
experimental techniques that can be used to study the structure of porous materials on the …

For the development of a new porous material such as catalytic carrier, the control of the
textural properties is of fundamental importance. In order to move towards rational synthesis …

The pore network architecture of porous heterogeneous catalyst supports has a significant
effect on the kinetics of mass transfer occurring within them. Therefore, characterizing and …

Meso-porous γ-alumina ceramics used as catalyst supports are characterized by high
porosity fraction (> 70%) and specific surface area (> 200 m²/g) targeted to ensure high …

The size of representative microstructural samples obtained from atomic force microscopy is
addressed in this paper. The case of an archetypal one‐dimensional nanolayered polymer …
