The change of scale is known to be a very interesting way to improve the modelling of mechanical behavior granular materials. In the past, studies have been proposed using a micro-scale at the grain level to perform change of scale, but limitations have been proven for these approaches. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDefinition and analysis of the phases are detailed, constituted by sets of meso-domains sharing the same texture characteristics. The authors propose a local constitutive model for the phases, allowing the constitutive model of the representative elementary volume to be definied from a change-of-scale approach and, finally, presenting the validation of obtained modeling on cyclic loadings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernard Cambou,Hélène Magoariec,Ngoc-Son Nguyen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1785480650\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781785480652\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Iste Press - Elsevier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Bernard Cambou","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136895135999,"sku":"9781785480652","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_71eff842-83ea-40f0-9c1d-e7db39b3197e.jpg?v=1770165171","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/granular-materials-at-meso-scale-bernard-cambou-9781785480652","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
