Macro-Micro Theory on Multifield Coupling Behavior of Heterogeneous Materials

This book contains a comprehensive treatment of heterogeneous materials under coupled thermal, magnetic, electric, and mechanical loads. The easy-to-understand text clarifies some of the most advanced techniques for analysing and solving multifield problems of heterogeneous materials: micromechanics approach and homogenization method. Readers will benefit from the authors’ thorough coverage of the fundamentals followed by detailed mathematical derivation with worked examples.
