Abstraet--A model is presented for predicting the anisotropic effective elastic moduli of a microcrack damaged material. The generalized self-consistent method is employed and the solution for a crack in an elliptical inclusion is used to estimate the energy dissipation due to crack opening. The ana

This study focuses on the prediction of the anisotropic effective elastic moduli of a solid containing microcracks with an arbitrary degree of alignment by using the generalized self-consistent method (GSCM). The effective elastic moduli pertaining to anti-plane shear deformation are discussed in de
Employing the strong fluctuation theory for random media, this article presents numerical results for the effective permittivity and conductwity transition for composite material of dense, nonspherical particles. It shows the functional dependence of anisotropic properties of composite material upon
The effects of sand concentration and porosity on the elastic properties of mortar and cement paste were studied. Acoustic wave measurements were performed on mortar specimens with 0 to 60 percent sand concentration, and on cement paste specimens with 28 to 53 percent porosity. The experimental resu
