An energy-based equivalent inclusion for the determination of nanocomposite behavior

Achieving remarkable mechanical properties for very low levels of reinforcement, nanocomposites are nowadays a new class of materials with high potential. Thanks to the stiffening aspect of the interface region between the matrix and the inclusions, nanocomposites often exhibit improved mechanical a...
