This article reviews continuum-based variational formulations for describing the elastic–
plastic deformation of anisotropic heterogeneous crystalline matter. These approaches …

Theoretical prediction of effective properties for multiphase material systems is very
important not only to analysis and optimization of material performance, but also to new …

A TD-split basal texture with two peaks highly tilted from the normal direction (ND) towards
the transverse direction (TD) is usually developed in Mg-Zn-Ca plates and can effectively …

This third edition offers a comprehensive overview of the latest theories on flow, transport,
and heat-exchange processes in porous media. It also details sophisticated porous media …

Various multiscale methods are reviewed in the context of modelling mechanical and
thermomechanical responses of composites. They are developed both at the material level …

The foundations of classical homogenization techniques, which aim at predicting the overall
behavior of heterogeneous materials from that of their constituents, are reviewed. After …

Modelling and simulation techniques are now considered an essential practice for the
materials industry. In order to gain insight into factors that can affect the final properties of a …

We develop homogenization schemes and numerical algorithms for two-phase elasto-
plastic composite materials and structures. A Hill-type incremental formulation enables the …

Written by the leading experts in computational materials science, this handy reference
concisely reviews the most important aspects of plasticity modeling: constitutive laws, phase …

A large strain elastic–viscoplastic self-consistent (EVPSC) model for polycrystalline
materials is developed. At single crystal level, both the rate sensitive slip and twinning are …
