Micromechanics Of Composites

Multipole Expansion Approach. Gives a systematic account of the multipole expansion method, including the theoretical foundations, analytical and numerical techniques and a new, dipole moment-based approach to the homogenization problem Contains detailed analytical and numerical analyses of a variety of micromechanical multiple inhomogeneity models providing clear insight into the physical nature of the problems under study Provides a reliable theoretical framework for developing the full-field based micromechanical theories of a composites strength, brittle/fatigue damage development, and other properties Updated to
