Abstract

Bounds and expressions for the elastic moduli of two or many phase nonhomogeneous materials are obtained by an approximate method based on the variational theorems of the theory of elasticity and on a concentric-spheres model. Theoretical results are in good agreement with experimental results for a two-phase alloy.
