About this ebook
This book reviews the mathematical modeling and experimental study of systems involving two or more different length scales. The effects of phenomena occurring at the lower length scales on the behavior at higher scales are of intrinsic scientific interest, but can also be very effectively used to determine the behavior at higher length scales or at the macro-level. Efforts to exploit this micro- and macro-coupling are, naturally, being pursued with regard to every aspect of mechanical phenomena. This book focuses on the changes imposed on the dynamics, strength of materials and durability of mechanical systems by related multiscale phenomena.
In particular, it addresses:
1: the impacts of effective dissipation due to kinetic energy trapped at lower scales2: wave propagation in generalized continua
3: nonlinear phenomena in metamaterials
4: the formalization of more general models to describe the exotic behavior of meta-materials
5: the design and study of microstructures aimed at increasing the toughness and durability of novel materials
About the author
Francesco dell’Isola has been a Full Professor at the Department of Structure and Geotechnical Engineering, Sapienza University of Rome (Italy) since 2006, and a Full Professor at the Department of Civil Engineering (DICEAA), University of L’Aquila (Italy) since 2016. In 2016, he also became Director of the International Research Center M&MoCS (University of L’Aquila). Since 2015, he has been the Responsible Italian Scientific Expert at the Laboratoire International Associé (LIA) Coss&Vita, a French-Italian international laboratory. His research activities chiefly focus on the synthesis and design of metamaterials, and on generalized models in continuum mechanics.
