Granular Materials at Meso-scale: Towards a Change of Scale Approach - Hardcover

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Bernard Cambou is an Engineer from Ecole Centrale de Lyon, Ph.D. He holds the position of State University Professor and is a former director of the Civil Engineering Department. He is Professor within the teaching department of Solid Mechanics, Mechanical Engineering and the Laboratory of Tribology and Systems Dynamics, UMR CNRS 5513, École Centrale de Lyon.

Hélène Magoariec is a Doctor of Engineering in solid mechanics, and lecturer at the Ecole Centrale de Lyon. She is a graduate of the Ecole Centrale de Marseille in 2000 and a doctorate in mechanical engineering from the University of Aix-Marseille II in 2003. In collaboration with the University of Aachen, she joined the Ecole Centrale de Lyon in 2005 and joined the Laboratory of Tribology and System Dynamics (LTDS). Her research activities concern the micromechanics of heterogeneous media, applied to different materials to suit her projects and collaborations, such as metal composites, granular, semi Drivers and since 2010, biological tissues.

Ngoc-Son Nguyen's research interests lie in the field of mechanics of granular materials; these include Computational mechanics, numerical modeling in DEM, multi-scale approach and homogenization technique, shock dynamics and nonlinear wave propagation. He received his PhD in civil engineering in 2009. Since 2010, he has undertaken research at INRIA, Grenoble.
