... a high temperature increase in a large region of the actuator beams. The total structural thermal expansion and, consequently, the actuation distance can be increased significantly. A top-down quasi-continuum multiscale model is presented for the computational analysis of nanocomposite based thermal...

... in larger errors for the POD based multiscale modeling approach [( 45 )]. Another point to note is that all reduced order modeling methods include a sacrifice in accuracy and predictability to varying degrees. In the examples presented, these methods have been used to aid early design decisions, where...
