Closed-Form Interacting Solutions for Overall Elastic Moduli of Composite Materials with Multi-Phase Inclusions, Holes and Microcracks

摘要

The recently proposed effective self-consistent method (ESCM) is a quite simple and powerful micromechanical approach of estimating the interaction effect for the overall physical properties of composite materials with multi-phase and multi-shape inclusions (involving holes and microcracks). The ESCM was developed based on the generalised self-consistent method (GSCM), while it is conveniently applicable in a similar way to the widely used Mori-Tanaka method.
