Overview
- Bridging the gap between mechanical engineering and material science through the presentation of fundamental, theoretical, experimental and practical aspects of mechanical modeling of materials with complex microstructures and complex behavior
- Addressed to a general advanced but not strictly specialized audience, stimulating a general understanding of interactions among different conceptions (continuum, computational, experimental mechanics)
- Short 'position papers' useful for having a general overview of the matter which can inspire new research directions
