      To gain control over the diffusive heat flux in a given domain, one has to design metamaterials with a specifc distribution of the generally anisotropic thermal conductivity throughout the domain. Until now, the appropriate ...
    • Inverse finite element modeling of shells using the degenerate solid approach 

      Fachinotti, Víctor D.; Albanesi, Alejandro E.; Martínez Valle, José M. (2015-09)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The Inverse Finite Element Method (IFEM) for degenerate solid shells is introduced. IFEM allows determining the undeformed shape of a body (in this case, a shell-like body) such that it attains a desired shape after large ...

    • Sensitivity of the thermomechanical response of elastic structures to microstructural changes 

      Fachinotti, Víctor D.; Toro, Sebastian; Sánchez, Pablo J.; Huespe, Alfredo Edmundo (2015-09)
      Article
      Accés obert
      This paper is focused on the analysis of the sensitivity of the thermomechanical response of a macroscopic elastic body to changes that occur at the microstructure. This problem is a key issue in material design. The ...
