Since the beginning of the industrial age, material performance and design have been in the
midst of innovation of many disruptive technologies. Today's electronics, space, medical …

In the past decades, considerable progress had been made in bridging the mechanics of
materials to other disciplines, eg downscaling to the field of materials science or upscaling to …

Herein, we present a new data-driven multiscale framework called FE ANN which is based
on two main keystones: the usage of physics-constrained artificial neural networks (ANNs) …

A general method called FE2 has been introduced which consists in describing the behavior
of heterogeneous structures using a multiscale finite element model. Instead of trying to …

This paper presents the detailed implementation and computational aspects of a novel
second-order computational homogenization procedure, which is suitable for a multi-scale …

Motivated by recent experimental investigations of the mechanical behavior of nanoporous
metal we explore an efficient and robust method for generating 3D representative volume …

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

This article focuses on computational multiscale methods for the mechanical response of
nonlinear heterogeneous materials. After a short historical note, a brief overview is given of …

In this paper, a mesoscale model of concrete is presented, which considers particles, matrix
material and the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) as separate constituents. Particles are …

Composite materials and structures are inherently inhomogeneous and anisotropic across
multiple scales. Multiscale modelling offers opportunities to understand the coupling of …
