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.

Poromechanics Parameters of Fluid-Saturated Chemically Active Fibrous Media Derived from a Micromechanical Approach.

TL;DR: The authors have derived macroscale poromechanics parameters for chemically active saturated fibrous media by combining microstructure-based homogenization with Hill's volume averaging and Hill's Lemmas, and are able to predict the influence of microscale phenomena such as fiber buckling on the overall behavior, and in particular, on the poromechinics constants.

Damage-induced mechanical damping in phase-transforming composites materials

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of stress-induced damage on the effective viscoelastic response of two-phase composites having constituents that undergo solid-solid phase transitions is investigated, and it is shown that the observed damage and resulting decrease in matrix stiffness can lead to significant changes in the overall, frequency-dependent damping and dynamic stiffness of the composite under time-harmonic two-dimensional loading.
