This book is an essential guide to constructing asymptotic models and mathematical methods to correctly identify the mechanical behaviour of composites. It provides methodology for predicting and evaluating composite behaviour in various structures, leading to accurate mathematical and physical assessments.
List of contents
1. Introduction. 2. Mathematical Approaches. 3. Three Phase Composite Model. 4. Lubrication Approach. 5. Using of Asymptotically Equivalent Functions for Analysis of Composite Structures. 6. Construction of Corrections to the Maxwell Formula.
