Abstract

Heterogeneous materials involve different length scales in their mechanical properties. Obviously a mechanical description taking into account all the microscopic details is impossible from a computational point of view except for parts of very small dimensions. The main aim of material homogenization is defining macroscopic homogeneous properties able to represent at the macroscopic scale the real material and allowing for ignoring the microscopic scale in the numerical representation.
