With the technology being developed to manufacture metallic parts using increasingly
advanced additive manufacturing processes, a new era has opened up for designing novel …

Understanding and modelling the dynamic behaviour of particulate systems has been a
major research focus worldwide for many years. Discrete particle simulation plays an …

Structured fabrics, such as woven sheets or chain mail armours, derive their properties both
from the constitutive materials and their geometry,. Their design can target desirable …

Many traditional approaches for strengthening steels typically come at the expense of useful
ductility, a dilemma known as strength–ductility trade-off. New metallurgical processing …

Low active material loading in the composite electrode of all‐solid‐state batteries (SSBs) is
one of the main reasons for the low energy density in current SSBs. In this work, it is …

Sand, rice, sugar, snow, cement... Although ubiquitous in our daily lives, granular media still
challenge engineers and fascinate researchers. This book provides the state-of-the-art of the …

The development of reliable strategies to optimize part production in additive manufacturing
technologies hinges, to a large extent, on the quantitative understanding of the mechanical …

We provide an overview of a multi-physics dynamics engine called Chrono. Its forte is the
handling of complex and large dynamic systems containing millions of rigid bodies that …
