Micromechanics based second gradient continuum theory for shear band modeling in cohesive granular materials following damage elasticity

TLDR
In this paper, a second gradient stress-strain damage elasticity theory based on the method of virtual power is proposed. But the authors consider the strain gradient and its conjugated double stresses instead of introducing an intrinsic material length scale into the constitutive law in an ad hoc fashion.

Approach à la Piola for the equilibrium problem of bodies with second gradient energies. Part II: Variational derivation of second gradient equations and their transport

TL;DR: In this article , a variational derivation of the equilibrium equations for second gradient materials and their transformation from the Eulerian to the Lagrangian form was presented, where volume, face and edge contributions to the inner virtual work were provided through integration by parts and by repeated applications of the divergence theorem extended to curved surfaces with border.

On a hemi-variational formulation for a 2D elasto-plastic-damage strain gradient solid with granular microstructure

TL;DR: In this paper , a continuum theory for 2D strain gradient materials accounting for a class of dissipation phenomena is presented, which is constructed by means of a (reversible) placement function and by reversible damage and plastic functions.

A still topical contribution of Gabrio Piola to Continuum Mechanics: the creation of peri-dynamics, non-local and higher gradient continuum mechanics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that non-local and higher gradient continuum mechanics is rigorously formulated already in Piola's works and explain the reasons of the unfortunate circumstance which caused the erasure of the memory of this aspect of his contribution.

Element‐free Galerkin methods

TL;DR: In this article, an element-free Galerkin method which is applicable to arbitrary shapes but requires only nodal data is applied to elasticity and heat conduction problems, where moving least-squares interpolants are used to construct the trial and test functions for the variational principle.
