The objective of this contribution is to present a unifying review on strain-driven
computational homogenization at finite strains, thereby elaborating on computational …

The paper is to present an overview of various semi-analytical numerical methods for quasi-
three-dimensional (3D) analyses of laminated composite and multilayered (or sandwiched) …

A micromechanics approach is developed to analyze the average fields and effective moduli
of heterogeneous media that exhibit full coupling between stationary elastic, electric, and …

We have studied the average magnetoelectroelastic field in a multi-inclusion or
inhomogeneity embedded in an infinite matrix. The magnetoelectroelastic inclusion and …

In this paper, a refined theory of laminated composite plates with piezoelectric laminae is
developed. The equations of motion of the theory are developed using an energy principle …

The present work deals with the modeling of 1–3 periodic composites made of piezoceramic
(PZT) fibers embedded in a soft non-piezoelectric matrix (polymer). We especially focus on …

A new modeling approach is proposed for predicting the bulk electromechanical properties
of piezoelectric composites. The proposed model offers the same level of convenience as …

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 …

An increasing interest in autonomous devices and electrical accumulators promoted by
industrial and domestic applications has raised the issue of powering these systems. In the …

A theoretical approach is forwarded to predict the electromechanical properties of porous
piezoelectric ceramics. The analysis is able to account for the effects of porosity shape and …
