Abstract: Abstract In this paper, we consider materials containing superspherical inhomogeneities and compare effects produced by pores and rigid particles of this shape. The overall properties are expressed in terms of compliance contribution tensors calculated for… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Our work focuses on the calculation of the overall elastic properties of a transversely isotropic material containing multiple randomly oriented circular cracks. We first propose a new methodology to estimate (approximately) the contribution of… read more here.
