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 formulate a relaxed linear elastic micromorphic continuum model with symmetric Cauchy
force stresses and curvature contribution depending only on the micro-dislocation tensor …

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

A linear elastic second gradient orthotropic two-dimensional solid that is invariant under 90^
∘ 90∘ rotation and for mirror transformation is considered. Such anisotropy is the most …

We propose a variational approach that employs a generalized principle of virtual work to
estimate both the mechanical response and the changes in living bone tissue during the …

In this paper, we study a metamaterial constructed with an isotropic material organized
following a geometric structure which we call pantographic lattice. This relatively complex …
