Determining effective elastic properties of rocks from their pore-scale digital images is a key goal of digital rock physics (DRP). Direct numerical simulation (DNS) of elastic behavior, however, incurs high computational cost; and…

Elastomeric mechanical metamaterials exhibit unconventional behaviour, emerging from their microstructures often deforming in a highly nonlinear and unstable manner. Such microstructural pattern transformations lead to non-local behaviour…

Computational modeling of the structural behavior of continuous fiber composite materials often takes into account the periodicity of the underlying micro-structure. A well established method dealing with the structural behavior of periodic…
Heterogeneity and uncertainty in a composite microstructure lead to either computational bottlenecks if modeled rigorously or to solution inaccuracies in the stress field and failure predictions if approximated. Although methods suitable…
Exotic behaviour of mechanical metamaterials often relies on an internal transformation of the underlying microstructure triggered by its local instabilities, rearrangements, and rotations. Depending on the presence and magnitude of such a…
Micro- and mesostructures of multiphase materials obtained from tomography and image acquisition are an ever more important database for simulation analyses. Huge data sets for reconstructed 3d volumes typically as voxel grids call for…
