Anisotropic effective conductivity of materials with nonrandomly oriented inclusions of diverse ellipsoidal shapes

Abstract: Effective, generally anisotropic, conductivity of a material with ellipsoidal inclusions is analyzed. The results are given in closed form. They cover, in a unified way, mixtures of inclusions of diverse eccentricities ͑including cracks͒ and arbitrary nonrandom orientational distributions. Proper parameter of inclusions concentration, in whose terms the effective conductivities are to be expressed, is identified. This parameter correctly represents contributions of the individual inclusions to the overall cond… Show more

“…Of course, the pore architecture is in most cases more complex and convoluted than a set of isolated ellipsoids [43]. The original Eshelby method is based on a set of identical inclusions, but it is possible to create a variety of inclusions, provided they are at dilute concentrations [4,5]. Furthermore, explicit relationships have been suggested [44] between the conductivity of a porous material in vacuum and its elastic constants.…”

“…Such systems can be modelled as incorporating randomly-distributed pores [3][4][5][6], contact resistance [7][8][9] or periodic structures [10,11]. Randomly-distributed inclusions, at dilute concentrations, have been modelled, assuming them to be non-interacting [4,5], whereas, for higher porosity levels, self-consistent [12,13] and effective medium [3,14] models have been developed. The latter considers an isolated inclusion to be located within a material with an effective conductivity, which differs from that of the real matrix.…”

“…The effective permeability of materials with this kind of cracks has been studied by many numericalempirical approaches. A more rigorous approach based on the homogenization scheme has been given by Shafiro and Kachanov (2000), Dormieux and Kondo (2004) and Barthélémy (2009) in which the crack is assimilated to oblate ellipsoidal inclusions obeying to a Darcy's law. This powerful approach easily provides results for the effective permeability of 3D cracked materials, but it can not take into account crack intersections explicitly.…”

“…(3.10)) for A 1 -5 can be expressed in terms of parameters q 1 -6 that are given in Appendix A (formulas (A1-4)) and reflect the pore shapes: Following [3] and [10], we consider the orientational distribution that is intermediate between the random and the parallel ones, i.e. a distribution that has an orientational preference but possesses a scatter:…”
