philosophers coined the term atom – a for “not” and tom for“divided – it was generally considered that atom was the smallest and indivisible building block of the universe (it is quitefascinating that we are still, in this day and age, learning from the ancient philosophic minds). Since then, in fairly recenttimes, physicists have discovered a host of smaller components in the illusive “inner world” of the atom.Inside of every atom lies an inner core – the nucleus, which is made up of positively charged protons and neutrally chargedneutrons, surrounded by negatively charged electrons, which encircle the inner core at tremendous speeds. It is a fascinatingfact that each atom is a sort of a “perpetual motion machine” because each revolution of the

then incorporated into a computer code to calculate total relativedisplacement under arbitrary history of shear loading. MotivationIt is hard to find structural elements in engineering applications that would not have anyjointed connections. The search for joints’ accurate modeling has been on-going for yearsbut with limited success. The latter is mainly attributed to the complexity of physicalprocesses taking place in the contact region when a joint is subjected to loading. Forexample, a contact between two surfaces always results in energy dissipation caused byfriction in shear micro-displacements. It leads to a highly non-linear behavior of a joint.The other challenge is related to the fact that the

Pre-Socraticphilosophers such as Empedocles (mid-fifth century B.C.) of the Pythagorean philosophicalschool developed a particular metaphysical perspective that suggested all matter is composed offour elements: earth, air, fire, and water [12]. This idea was later refined by Leucippus andDemocritus (early fourth century B.C.) who propounded an atomistic theory of matter in whicheverything is reducible to discrete and indivisible Atomos (from
