Abstract
In this work, important novel computational aspects of multiscale modeling methods and their application to shock wave phenomena in granular solids, ceramics, polymers and bilayer membranes are presented. Additionally, the results of corresponding high-speed impact experiments with ceramics are shown, along with laser-induced shock wave experiments with U87 glioblastoma (human brain tumor) cells. We successfully tested the hypothesis that mechanical shock waves can have a destructive biological effect on this type of tumor cells.
