Thermoelastic properties of particulate composites with imperfect interface
Effective elastic moduli and thermal expansion coefficient of spherical particle composites with imperfect interfaces are evaluated on the basis of the composite spheres assemblage and generalized self-consistent scheme models. Imperfect interface is defined in terms of interface displacement discontinuities which are linearly related to interface tractions in terms of spring constant parameters. In the case of presence of interphase these parameters are evaluated in terms of interphase characteristics.
