Abstract

Modelling of polycrystalline ceramics built up of different phases has been done within mesomechanical approach. Porous ceramics consists of matrix material and second phase – pores. Such material has non-linear and complex overall response to applied load. Modelling of porous polycrystalline material was performed by multiscale approach describing different phenomena occuring at different scales: micro- meso- and macro- with application of averaging procedure over the Representative Surface Element (RSE).
