    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.85, No.5, pp. 417-446, 2012, DOI:10.3970/cmes.2012.085.417

    Abstract We consider a linearly elastic composite medium, which consists of a homogeneous matrix containing a statistically homogeneous set of multimodal spherical inclusions modeling the morphology of heterogeneous solid propellants (HSP). Estimates of effective elastic moduli are performed using the multiparticle effective field method (MEFM) directly taking into account the interaction of different inclusions. Because of this, the effective elastic moduli of the HSP evaluated by the MEFM are sensitive to both the relative size of the inclusions (i.e., their multimodal nature) and the radial distribution functions (RDFs) estimated from experimental data, as well as from More >
