Similarity:

Whereas in elasticity and plasticity geometrically similar structures behave in the same way, when strain-softening and strain-localization are taken into account the structural behaviour ranges from ductile to brittle merely by increasing size and keeping material properties and geometrical shape unchanged. The size-scale of plain and reinforced concrete elements has often revealed a fundamental influence on the global structural behaviour. This has been theoretically predicted and...

Multiscale Materials Modelling: Case Studies at the Atomistic and Electronic Structure Levels

Emilio Silva, Clemens Först, Ju Li, Xi Lin, Ting Zhu, Sidney Yip (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

Although the intellectual merits of computational modelling across various length and time scales are generally well accepted, good illustrative examples are often lacking. One way to begin appreciating the benefits of the multiscale approach is to first gain experience in probing complex physical phenomena at one scale at a time. Here we discuss materials modelling at two characteristic scales separately, the atomistic level where interactions are specified through classical potentials...
