Applied Micromechanics of Complex Microstructures
Applied Micromechanics of Complex Microstructures: Computational Modeling and Numerical Characterization explains the fundamental concepts of continuum modeling of various complicated microstructures, covering nanocomposites, multi-phase composites, biomaterials, biological materials, and more. The book's authors outline the calculation of effective mechanical and thermal properties, allowing readers to fully understand step-by-step modeling and homogenization of complicated microstructures. The book also features a chapter on microstructure hull and materials design, along with the modeling of complex samples with nonlinear properties such as neural tissue, bone microstructure, and liver tissue.
About the authors
Mostafa Baghani has been an Associate Professor at the University of Tehran's School of Mechanical Engineering, College of Engineering since 2012. In 2016, he became the director of the University of Tehran's Smart Materials and Structures Lab. In the framework of continuum mechanics, his research focuses on smart material production, design, and constitutive modeling. He has also focused on computer modeling of proposed constitutive models, which are frequently developed using the nonlinear finite element method.
