The study of inclusions is of significance to the development of advanced materials for
aerospace, marine, automotive and many other applications. This is because the presence …

Interphase regions that form in heterogeneous materials through various underlying
mechanisms such as poor mechanical or chemical adherence, roughness, and coating, play …

A two-dimensional problem of multiple interacting circular nano-inhomogeneities or/and
nano-pores is considered. The analysis is based on the Gurtin and Murdoch model [Gurtin …

The boundary conditions for the Steigmann–Ogden (1997, 1999) model are re-derived for a
two dimensional surface using general expression for surface energy that include surface …

This paper presents a comprehensive review of the far-field-based methodology of
estimation of the effective properties of multi-phase composites that was pioneered by …

Most micromechanics models for composite materials have been derived under the static
condition, and most of them are not known to possess a dynamical basis. In this article, we …

A three-dimensional (3D) micromechanical study has been performed in order to investigate
local damage in unidirectional (UD) composite materials with epoxy resin under transverse …

This paper presents the semi-analytical solution for the transverse local fields and overall
transverse properties of composite materials with aligned multiple cylindrical nanofibers …

A new technique is presented for evaluating the effective properties of linearly elastic, multi-
phase unidirectional composites. Various effects on the fiber/matrix interfaces (perfect bond …

This paper reviews several leading approaches for asymptotic modelling of thin layers in
elastostatics and wave propagation phenomena. The issues related to applications of the so …
