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.

A 1D Continuum Model for Beams with Pantographic Microstructure: Asymptotic Micro-Macro Identification and Numerical Results

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the deformation energy is not of second gradient type only because it depends, like in the Euler beam model, upon the Lagrangian curvature, i.e. the projection of the second gradient of the placement function upon the normal vector to the deformed line.

Experimental and numerical study on the interaction between holes and fissures in rock-like materials under uniaxial compression

TL;DR: In this article, two types of pre-flawed rock-like material specimens with holes and fissures are fabricated and subjected to uniaxial compression using Digital image correlation (DIC), Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring, Computerized tomography (CT) scanning, and two-dimensional Particle flow code (PFC2D).

Grain- and macro-scale kinematics for granular micromechanics based small deformation micromorphic continuum model

TL;DR: In this article, the macro-scale kinematic variables useful for continuum modeling are identified with the grain-scale Kinematic Variables, which can be used to estimate the relative movement of a grain boundary or contact.

Hemivariational continuum approach for granular solids with damage-induced anisotropy evolution:

TL;DR: The behavior of materials with granular microstructures is confounded by unique features of their grain-scale mechano-morphology, such as the tension-compression asymmetry of grain interacti....

Some Cases of Unrecognized Transmission of Scientific Knowledge: From Antiquity to Gabrio Piola’s Peridynamics and Generalized Continuum Theories

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the works of the Italian scientist Gabrio Piola (1794-1850) and show clear similarities between Noll's postulation of mechanics and the "ancient" presentation by Piola of the ideas needed to found Analytical Continuum Mechanics.

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.

A new Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) approach in computational mechanics

TL;DR: In this article, a local symmetric weak form (LSWF) for linear potential problems is developed, and a truly meshless method, based on the LSWF and the moving least squares approximation, is presented for solving potential problems with high accuracy.
