Tra il 28 e il 30 settembre 2020 si terrà a Pisa il 56° Meeting della Society for Natural Philosophy (SNP) sul tema Mechanics and Analysis. La SNP, fondata nel 1963 da Clifford Truesdell, ha lo scopo di promuovere l'interdisciplinarietà tra materie di confine, cercando di attenuare l'eccesso di specializzazione; in particolare, il 56° Meeting intende sviluppare il tema "Mechanics and Analysis", mettendo […]

Abstract: Predicting effective mechanical properties of composite materials and structures remains one of the major challenges in the field of multiscale modeling. The mechanical response and damage behavior at higher length scales are deeply influenced by processes at lower length scales, governed by the interaction among the composite constituents (matrix, fibers, laminae, interphases, etc.). Moreover, while […]
