Magma convection favors ephemeral melt-rich bodies within mushy reservoirs [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsMagma convection is a mechanism that greatly enhances heat transfer from mobilizable, crystal-poor magma bodies to the surrounding immobile, crystal-rich mush reservoir of Earth’s igneous systems.

Design of sound absorbers based on open-cell foams via microstructure-based modeling [PDF]
Archives of Acoustics, 2022 Effects of microstructure factors on the acoustic performance of open-cell foams can be characterized numerically by a microstructure-based approach. To this regard, the numerical homogenization approach and the equivalent-fluid theory are employed to ...

Parallel evolutionary optimization in multiscale problems [PDF]
Computer Methods in Materials Science, 2009 The paper is devoted to optimization in multiscale problems. The composite modelled as a macrostructure with a local periodic microstructure is considered. The multiscale analysis is performed with the use of the homogenization method.

Homogenization modelling of antibiotic diffusion and adsorption in viral liquid crystals
Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Systems of rod-shaped viruses have long been important to the science of living liquid crystals, as their monodispersity and uniform charge make them convenient model systems. Recently, it was shown that, upon the addition of polymers, suspensions of rod-

Effective behavior of long and short fiber-reinforced viscoelastic composites
Applications in Engineering Science, 2021 We study the homogenized properties of linear viscoelastic composite materials in three dimensions. The composites are assumed to be constituted by a non-aging, isotropic viscoelastic matrix reinforced by square or hexagonal arrangements of elastic ...

Numerical Investigation on Effective Elastic Modulus of Multifractal Porous Materials
Fractal and Fractional, 2022 The design of a novel material necessitates a fundamental understanding of its structure–property relation. Inorganic porous materials (media) such as natural soil and rock, and artificial ceramic and cement, exhibit multifractal characteristics in view ...
