In a companion paper, equations for partially molten media were derived using two-scale homogenization theory. One advantage of homogenization is that material properties, such as permeability and viscosity, readily emerge. A caveat is that…

Knitted fabrics exemplify a broad class of architected materials capable of large deformations, enabling shape morphing, mechanical biocompatibility, and embedded multifunctionality without material damage. Although geometric nonlinearity…

Machine Learning (ML) techniques are revolutionizing the way to perform efficient materials modeling. Nevertheless, not all the ML approaches allow for the understanding of microscopic mechanisms at play in different phenomena. To address…

The use of discrete material representation in numerical models is advantageous due to the straightforward way it takes into account material heterogeneity and randomness, and the discrete and orientated nature of cracks. Unfortunately, it…

In this contribution, we present a new Materials Knowledge System framework for microstructure-sensitive predictions of effective stress--strain responses in composite materials. The model is developed for composites with a wide range of…

Woven fabric materials are widely used in rendering applications, yet designing realistic examples typically involves multiple stages, requiring expertise in weaving principles and texture authoring. Recent advances have explored diffusion…

The permeability of complex porous materials can be obtained via direct flow simulation, which provides the most accurate results, but is very computationally expensive. In particular, the simulation convergence time scales poorly as…

Theoretical concepts in condensed matter physics are typically verified and also developed by exploiting computer simulations mostly in simple models. Predictions based on these usually isotropic models are often at odds with measurement…

Atomic simulations of material microstructure require significant resources to generate, store and analyze. Here, atomic descriptor functions are proposed as a general latent space to compress atomic microstructure, ideal for use in…

Non-destructive methods are essential for linking the microstructural geometry of porous materials to their mechanical behavior, as destructive testing is often infeasible due to limited material availability or irreproducible conditions.…

Material microstructures are traditionally compared using sets of statistical measures that are incomplete, e.g., two visually distinct microstructures can have identical grain size distributions and phase fractions. While this is not a…

The macroscopic behaviors of materials are determined by interactions that occur at multiple lengths and time scales. Depending on the application, describing, predicting, and understanding these behaviors require models that rely on…

In recent times, the use of machine learning in materials design and discovery has aided to accelerate the discovery of innovative materials with extraordinary properties, which otherwise would have been driven by a laborious and…

In recent years, new methods have been developed to synthesize complex porous and micro-structured geometry in a variety of ways. In this work, we take these approaches one step further and present these methods as an efficacious design…

Mechanical metamaterials have continued to offer unprecedented tunability in mechanical properties, but most designs to date have prioritized attaining high stiffness and strength while sacrificing deformability. The emergence of woven…

To discuss the properties of metamaterials on physical grounds and to consider them in applications, effective material parameters are usually introduced and assigned to a given metamaterial. In most cases, only weak spatial dispersion is…

High-dimensional data must be highly structured to be learnable. Although the compositional and hierarchical nature of data is often put forward to explain learnability, quantitative measurements establishing these properties are scarce.…

Morphology and dynamics at the meso-scale play crucial roles in the overall macro- or system-scale flow of heterogeneous materials. In a multi-scale framework, closure models upscale unresolved sub-grid (meso-scale) physics and therefore…

The structure and degree of order in soft matter and other materials is intimately connected to the nature of the interactions between the particles. One important research goal is to find suitable control mechanisms, to enhance or suppress…

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…
