In this review paper, some relevant models, algorithms, and approaches conceived to
describe the bone tissue mechanics and the remodeling process are showcased …

In Mechanics, material properties are most often regarded as being given, and based on
this, many technical solutions are usually conceived and constructed. However, nowadays …

In the last decade, the exotic properties of pantographic metamaterials have been
investigated and different mathematical models (both discrete or continuous) have been …

The aim of this paper is to find a computationally efficient and predictive model for the class
of systems that we call 'pantographic structures'. The interest in these materials was …

Hencky (Über die angenäherte Lösung von Stabilitätsproblemen im Raum mittels der
elastischen Gelenkkette. Ph. D. thesis, Engelmann, 1921) proposed a discrete model for …

We present a generalized shear deformation theory in combination with isogeometric (IGA)
approach for nonlinear transient analysis of smart piezoelectric functionally graded material …

In the present work, we show that the linearized homogenized model for a pantographic
lattice must necessarily be a second gradient continuum, as defined in Germain (1973) …

In this paper we consider linear pantographic sheets, which in their natural configuration are
constituted by two orthogonal arrays of straight fibers interconnected by internal pivots. We …

In this paper, we exploit some results in the theory of irreversible phenomena to address the
study of quasi-static brittle fracture propagation in a two-dimensional isotropic continuum …

By using modern additive manufacturing techniques, a structure at the millimeter length
scale (macroscale) can be produced showing a lattice substructure of micrometer …
