β¦ Synopsis
Although methods of product design and materials selection have been developed, the recent rise of multimaterials (composites, hybrids, etc.) has shown a lack of tools for engineering in this domain. The present contribution aims at the development of a multimaterials design method based on the adaptation of existing methods and on the conclusions of a case study. In comparison with materials selection, the originality of multimaterials design relates to searching materials coupling mechanisms to satisfy a set of requirements. More, it appears that manufacturing process and validation tests are very important points that must be integrated early in the design process.

We focus on a fully implicit, nonlinearly converged, solution of multimaterial equilibrium radiation diffusion problems. The nonlinear method of solution is a Newton-Krylov (generalized minimum residual, GMRES) method preconditioned by a multigrid method. The multigrid iteration matrix results from
This work develops a procedure for representing multimaterial interfaces in finite difference models. The boundary separating the two materials can be on or between a row of nodes. The development is validated by embedding the boundary between two regions in a single, larger region and comparing the
