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 …

We analyze the damage initiation, damage progression, and failure during 3-dimensional (3-
D) elasto-plastic deformations of a fiber reinforced polymeric laminated composite impacted …

The fatigue-life of a polycrystalline superalloy under symmetrical cyclic strain controlled
loading at a temperature of 650° C is investigated by numerical simulations on the micro …

The coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) of unidirectional glass fiber-reinforced
polyimide composites containing silica nanoparticles are investigated. To this end, a three …

The effective elastic moduli of composite materials are investigated in the presence of
imperfect interfaces between the inclusions and the matrix. The primary focus is on the …

The influence of the interface properties (interface strength and toughness) on the tensile
deformation was studied in a model composite made of a random distribution of stiff …

A computational homogenization model using microstructures obtained from X-ray micro-CT
is developed to estimate the porosity-based elastic properties of ultra-high performance …

Abstract 35% SiC p/2024 Al (volume fraction) composite was prepared by powder
metallurgy method. The microstructures of SiC p/Al interfaces and precipitate phase/Al …

In this work, uniaxial tensile loading was simulated to explain the effect of the interface and
varying particle shapes in particle reinforced composite models based on experiments. The …

This paper deals with a constitutive model of particulate-reinforced composites which can
describe the evolution of debonding damage, matrix plasticity and particle size effects on …
