Opis

This special volume of the series Lecture Notes in Applied and Computational Mechanics is a compendium of reviewed articles presented at the 11th EUROMECH-MECAMAT conference entitled Mechanics of microstructured solids: cellular materials, fibre reinforced solids and soft tissues, which took place in Torino (Italy) in March 10-14, 2008, at the Museo Regional delle Scienze. This EUROMECH-MECAMAT conference was jointly organized by the Dipartimento di Matematica dell Universita di Torino, Italy and the INPL Institute (LEMTA, Nancy-Universite, France). The conference covered most of the mechanical and materials aspects, grouped in the following four sessions Fibre reinforced materials, Soft biological tissues, Generalized continua: models and materials, and Non-linear wave propagation."
