5 PREFACE The last decades have witnessed a strong thrust towards improving existing structural materials and to develop new ones, the long-term aim being a capability to tailor materials for specific applications. This environment - in combination with a remarkable increase in computing power - has been instrumental in giving rise to marked improvements in modeling capabilities and experimental methods aimed at obtaining a better understanding of the thermomechanical behavior of engineering materials. One field that has benefitted strongly from these trends is continuum mechanical methods for studying inhomogeneous materials. The CISM Course on "Mechanics of Microstructured Materials", which was held in U dine from July 7 to July 11, 2003, accordingly aimed at presenting selected state-of-the-art theoretical tools in this field of research in close integration with related experimental developments. Like the course, the present book is structured to consist of a short overview of modeling approaches in continuum micromechanics together with contributions on a number of research topics that are of current interest in the study of microstructured materials. Methods for modeling damage of and cracks in microstructured materials are a core issue, with the topics covered including descriptions of the fracture of brittle reinforcements in composites, thermomechanical cohesive zone models, and simulations of creep rupture in polycrystalline materials. A second focus lies in experimental and statistical methods for the description and classification of microstructures and statistically based methods for assessing the stress and strain fields. Advanced descriptions for the elastoplastic behavior of metals are a third point of emphasis, with contributions on crystal plasticity and discrete dislocation models. Finally, studies are provided that concentrate on modeling strategies for the thermomechanical behavior of specific microstructured materials, such as discontinuously reinforced composites and graded carbon-carbon composites. Together these contributions are intended to provide a framework for introducing the reader to current trends and different points of view in studying the mechanical behavior of microstructured materials. Finally, it is my pleasure to thank the lecturers at the CISM course and contributors to this book, Javier LLorca, Peter McHugh, Ryszard Pyrz, Thomas Siegmund and Erik van der Giessen. I would also like to express my appreciation of the active participation by the 31 attendees of the course, who came from 15 different countries. Last, but not least, the efficient support by the rectors and the staff of CISM is most gratefully acknowledged. Helmut J. Bohm
