The effective elastic and conductive properties of matrix composites depend on two geometric factors – inhomogeneity shapes and orientation distribution – and on the property contrast between the matrix and inhomogeneities. The roles of the two geometric factors are strongly coupled; both are also coupled with the role of the property contrast. These issues are examined, with particular attention paid to the case of preferential orientation with random scatter.

关于基复合材料的有效特性：几何因素与特性对比的关系


基复合材料的有效弹性和导电性能取决于两个几何因素 - 不均匀性形状和取向分布 - 以及基体和不均匀性之间的性能对比。这两个几何因子的作用是强耦合的;两者都与 CONTRAST 属性的作用耦合在一起。对这些问题进行了检查，特别关注随机分散的优先取向的情况。
