Introduction:
| In this session, we intend to bring together specialists focused on the mathematical formulation and analysis of problems arising in the study of heterogeneous media. In a strict sense, all materials exhibit heterogeneity at some scale, and the specific characteristics of their microstructures significantly influence a wide range of their macroscopic properties. Addressing problems within this broad context naturally bridges Mathematics, Continuum Mechanics, and Materials Science. This interdisciplinary approach not only fosters the development of novel analytical and computational techniques but also requires the exploration of diverse functional spaces.
