About the Book

There are numerous technological materials - such as metals, polymers, ceramics, concrete, and many others - that vary in properties and serviceability. However, the almost universal common theme to most real materials is that their properties depend on the scale at which the analysis or observation takes place and at each scale "probabilities" play an important role. Here the word "probabilities" is used in a wider than the classical sense. In order to increase the efficiency and serviceability of these materials, researchers from NATO, CP and other countries were brought together to exchange knowledge and develop avenues for progress and applications in the st 21 century. The workshop began by reviewing progress in the subject area over the past few years and by identifying key questions that remain open. One point was how to observe/measure material properties at different scales and whether a probabilistic approach, at each scale, was always applicable and advantageous. The wide range of materials, from wood to advanced metals and from concrete to complex advanced composites, and the diversity of applications, e.g. fatigue, fracture, deformation, etc., were recognized as "obstacles" in identifying a "universal" approach.

Table of Contents:
I — Contributions.- 1. Material structure, description and application.- Simultaneous failures in fiber bundles.- Synergetical models of fatigue-surface appearance in metals: the scale levels of self-organization, the rotation effects, and density of fracture energy.- Lacunarity of the contact domain between elastic bodies with rough boundaries — Numerical analysis and scale effects.- How far can we control the heterogeneity of wood and wood based materials through design?.- Crack roughness.- Common characteristics of damage accumulation and fracture of solids.- 2. Scaling, fracture and applications.- Mechanical response of disordered media/patterns, measurements and modelling.- Failure scaling as multiscale instability in defect ensemble.- A statistical-probabilistic approach to microstructure-structure relations in failure and damage of ceramic composites.- Kinetic models of brittle crack growth: crack pattern statistics and longevity of solids.- From classic to fractal mechanics of disordered media: self-consistency versus self-similarity.- 3. Structures and structural components.- Probabilistic models of structures.- A new model for inter-fibre-failure of high-strenght uni-directionally reinforced plastics and its reliability implications.- Probabilistic approach to dimensioning of structures exposed to stochastic operating loads.- Modeling of material uncertainties using the nonlinear stochastic finite element method.- Structural approach in contimuun modeling of damageable particulate composites.- Finite element and reliability: combined methods by response surface.- Probabilistic design of performance in glued laminated timber.- 4. Numerics, simulation techniques and design processes.- Scale effect for concrete specimens: a numerical model.- Numericalmodelling of concrete elements of increasing size.- Multiscale material characterization and applications.- Probailistic aspects in shape memory alloy modelling —Constitutive law for energy dissipators.- Homogenization of random granular media.- Towards quantitatively correct micromechanics models.- 5.
