This special issue collects selected contributions (excluding general lectures) of a Symposium on ‘Micro to MACRO Mathematical Modelling in Soil Mechanics’, which took place at the University of Regg …

Stringent industrial requirements for sophisticated performance and circumstantial control of microdevices or nanotechnology manufacturing, and other types of machinery at multiple scales, require co …

Toachieve design, implementation, and servicing ofcomplex systems and struc- tures in an efficient and cost-effective way, a deeper knowledge and understanding of the subtle cast and detailed evoluti …

This distinctive textbook aims to introduce readers to the basic structures of the mechanics of deformable bodies, with a special emphasis on the description of the elastic behavior of simple materia …

Granular matter displays a variety of peculiarities that distinguish it from other appearances studied in condensed matter physics and renders its overall mathematical modelling somewhat arduous. Pro …

This contributed volume provides an up-to-date overview of the mechanics of granular materials, ranging from sparse media to soils. With chapters exploring state-of-the-art theoretical, experimental, …

This volume provides a timely survey of interactions between the calculus of variations and theoretical and applied mechanics. Chapters have been significantly expanded since preliminary versions app …
