Recent advances in the characterisation and modelling of microstresses developed
between grains and phases in a polycrystal are reviewed. The evolution of microstresses in …

In mechanical engineering and structural analysis there is a significant gap between the
material models currently used by engineers for industry applications and those already …

We derive the elastic strain and stress fields in an infinite medium constituted of an n-layered
isotropic spherical inclusion, embedded in a matrix subjected to uniform stress or strain …

La principale préoccupation des bâtisseurs concerne la pérennité de leurs constructions.
Cette dernière était rendue possible par l'emploi de matériaux performants en terme de …

A new technique, which allows to characterize the local strain field over a domain
representative of the microstructure of a heterogeneous material, is described. It is based on …

In the present report some basic issues of and some of the modeling strategies used for
studying static and quasistatic problems in continuum micromechanics of materials are …

One of the main specific aspects of continuum micromechanics is related to the fact that one
has generally to deal with ill-defined bodies: only partial information on the statistical …

In this paper, it is shown that the double-inclusion model (Hori, M., Nemat-Nasser, S., 1993.
Double-inclusion model and overall moduli of multi-phase composites. Mech. Mater. 14, 189 …

This work is devoted to the derivation of the elastic strain and stress fields in an infinite
medium constituted of an n-layered transversely isotropic cylindrical inclusion, surrounded …

The purpose of this work is the accurate prediction of the effective elastic moduli of syntactic
foams, for arbitrary selection of the volume fraction and material for the matrix and the filler …
