Mir Aamir Abbas

Hi Yang Gao. I think we can find out the effective properties using the law of mixtures and then model it in FEA using a continuous model.

Yang Gao

Hi Mir Aamir Abbas, thanks for your answer! Actually, I am trying to study the deformation mechanism of particle reinforced composites. Here, I guess we could arrange the particles in FCC or BCC structures with some randomness for a high volume fraction.
