For linearly elastic heterogeneous solids, averaging theorems are developed by Nemat-Nasser and Hori (S. Nemat-Nasser, M. Hori, Micromechanics: Overall Properties of Heterogeneous Solids, Elsevier, Amsterdam, 1993; and S. Nemat-Nasser, M. Hori, J. Eng. Mater. Technol. 117 (1995) 412), using a multi-inclusion model. This model is based on the observation that the average strain and stress in any...

A well-established methodology to capture interphases in heterogeneous materials is replace them by a zero-thickness interface model. Commonly accepted models intuitively assume that satisfy the angular momentum balance, interfaces must coincide with mid-layer of their corresponding interphases. Recently, via adopting weighted averages, an extended general model has been developed allows for ar...

Explicit schemes of Mori-Tanaka and Kuster-Tokss oz for estimating elastic properties of multiphase composites are compared and contrasted. Both methods are known to have a limited range of validity. Reexamination of the theories and comparisons to experiment lead to the conclusion that these explicit schemes should not be used to estimate properties of systems in which the host material occupi...

The paper proposes an analytical homogenization procedure to predict the overall elastic properties of shot-earth, a sustainable composite material made excavated soil, aggregates and, if needed, binder for stabilization. A multi-step methodology based on Mori–Tanaka approach is used account stabilized soil inclusions. This proposed in order shorten mix-design procedures and readily provide str...

The multilayered composite structure has been utilized frequently in the literature of periodic homogenization as a test case for developing new methodologies linear and nonlinear media. manuscript demonstrates that these composites can also be used validating mean-field micromechanics techniques. It is shown Mori–Tanaka method combined with Transformation Field Analysis provides same solution ...
