The technique of change of scales has been extensively developed in the literature to describe the global behaviour of granular materials taking into account their local properties. This method usually considers two scales : the macroscopic scale at the level of representative elementary volume and the microscopic scale at the level of contact between particles. The major difficulty of this "micro-macro" change of scales lies in the definition of the macroscopic strain : indeed, the macroscopic stress is clearly defined from contact forces while it is not appropriate to derive the macroscopic strain from the kinematics at contacts. In this framework, this work proposes to introduce a third scale called mesoscopic scale. This scale, at which...
