We developed a new method to determine the effective shape of inclusions in complex materials. This shape accurately predicts material properties and percolation thresholds across all phase fractions.

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Mathematical Physics

Background:

  • Understanding material properties requires characterizing microstructures.
  • Traditional methods struggle with complex, arbitrarily shaped constituents.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel method for defining the effective shape of inclusions.
  • To validate this method's accuracy in predicting material properties.

Main Methods:

  • Integral geometry
  • Kac theorem for Laplace operator spectrum
  • Effective inclusion shape reconstruction

Main Results:

  • Accurate prediction of percolation thresholds.
  • Accurate prediction of mechanical and transport properties.

    • Conclusions:

    • The effective inclusion shape method accurately models complex microstructures.
    • This approach enhances effective medium theories for materials prediction.
