Cellular Automaton Development for the Study of the Neighborhood Effect within Polycrystals Stress-Fields

Many different kinds of heterogeneities can be found within polycrystals such as metallurgical phases, grains morphology, inclusions, residual stresses, crystal anisotropy, etc. These heterogeneities are responsible for local stress concentrations that can lead to early crack initiations. The random character...

Composite materials reinforced with natural fibers: Generalities

Composites are advanced materials made mostly of a matrix and some reinforcements; however, additives and fillers are sometimes essential elements of their formulation, depending on the targeted application [7–9]. Each component used in the composite formulation aims at achieving a...
