In this paper a second-order homogenization approach for periodic material is derived from an appropriate representation of the down-scaling that correlates the microdisplacement field to the macro-displacement field and the macro-strain…
This study proposes a multi-field asymptotic homogenization for the analysis of thermo-piezoelectric materials with periodic microstructures. The effect of the microstructural heterogeneity is taken into account by means of periodic…
This work develops a dynamic homogenization approach for metamaterials. It finds an approximate macroscopic homogenized equation with constant coefficients posed in space and time; however, the resulting homogenized equation is higher order…
Here homogenization theory is used to establish a connection between the symmetries of a periodic elastic structure associated with the microscopic properties of an elastic material and the material symmetries of the effective, macroscopic…
It is now well established that the homogenization of a periodic array of parallel dielectric fibers with suitably scaled high permittivity can lead to a (possibly) negative frequency-dependent effective permeability. However this result…
Two-dimensional (2D) electronic materials are of significant technological interest due to their exceptional properties and broad applicability in engineering. The transition from nanoscale physics, that dictates their stable…
Long range order and symmetry in heterogeneous materials architected on crystal lattices lead to elastic and inelastic anisotropies and thus limit mechanical functionalities in particular crystallographic directions. Here, we present a…
We investigate numerically the homogenized permittivities of composites made of low index dielectric inclusions in a ferroelectric matrix under a static electric field. A refined model is used to take into account the coupling between the…
Advancement in manufacturing methods enable designing so called metamaterials with a tailor-made microstructure. Microstructure affects materials response within a length-scale, where we model this behavior by using the generalized…
We consider a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed at a near-ferroelectric interface and strongly coupled to polar phonons. Through a self-consistent microscopic many-body calculation, we show that the coupled system stabilizes a…
Two classes of non-linear elastic materials are derived via two-dimensional homogenization. These materials are equivalent to a periodic grid of axially-deformable and axially-preloaded structural elements, subject to incremental…
In this chapter we describe a selection of mathematical techniques and results that suggest interesting links between the theory of gratings and the theory of homogenization, including a brief introduction to the latter. By no means do we…
Besides the chemical constituents, it is the lattice geometry that controls the most important material properties. In many interesting compounds, the arrangement of elements leads to pronounced anisotropies, which reflect into a varying…
In this work, we develop a new systematic and self-consistent approach to homogenize arbitrary non-magnetic periodic metamaterials. The proposed method does not rely on the solution of an eigenvalue problem and can fully characterize the…
We carry out the homogenization of time-harmonic Maxwell's equations in a periodic, layered structure made of two-dimensional (2D) metallic sheets immersed in a heterogeneous and in principle anisotropic dielectric medium. In this setting,…
Metamaterials are artificial periodic structures which represent effective homogeneous medium for electromagnetic fields. Here I show that there exists an important class of such composite systems, metaferroelectrics. They are properly…
Anisotropic homogeneous metamaterials that are neither wholly dissipative nor wholly active at a specific frequency are permitted by classical electromagnetic theory. Well-established homogenization formalisms indicate that such a…
Flexoelectricity shows promising applications for self-powered devices with its increased power density. This paper presents a second-order computational homogenization strategy for flexoelectric composite. The macro-micro scale transition,…
We propose a methodology for the homogenization of periodic elastic lattices that covers the case of unstable lattices, having affine (macroscopic) or periodic (microscopic) mechanisms. The singular cell problems that are encountered when a…
Periodic configurations have dominated the design of phononic and elastic-acoustic metamaterial structures for the past decades. Unlike periodic crystals, quasicrystals lack translational symmetry but are unrestricted in rotational…
