Synopsis:

The course will cover analytical methods for multiscale modeling of heterogenous materials, with emphasis on:

1.Introduction, overview of governing equations of elasticity, tensor notation, and averaging

2.Minimum energy principles, material symmetries

3.Elementary theory of overall moduli, concentration factors, Voigt-Reuss bounds

4.Exact solution for two-phase composites, idea of improved bounds

5.Eshelby problem

6.Approximate evaluation of overall moduli: dilute approximation, self-consistent method, Mori-Tanaka method

7.Improved bounds on overall moduli: Hashin-Shtrikman bounds

8.Thermo-elasticity

9.Extension to stationary transport processes
