This book elucidates the most recent and highly original developments in the fields of micro- and nanomechanics and the corresponding homogenization techniques that can be reliably adopted and applied in determining the local properties, as well as the linear and nonlinear effective properties of the final architecture of these complex composite structures. Specifically, this volume, divided into three main sections Fundamentals, Modeling, and Applications provides recent developments in the mathematical framework of micro- and nanomechanics, including Green s function and Eshelby s...
