An algorithm is proposed to determine the effective deformation properties and stress-strain state of particulate composite materials with physically nonlinear components and complex stress state. The laws that govern the deformation of particulate composites are studied. A particulate composite is considered a two-component material of random structure. Its effective properties are determined by conditional averaging. The nonlinear equations that incorporate the physical nonlinearity of the components are solved by the method of successive approximations. The relationship between macrostresses and macrostrains is established.

The dynamic stress intensity factors (DSIFs) of two 3D rectangular cracks in a transversely isotropic elastic material under an incident harmonic stress wave are investigated by generalized Almansi’s theorem and the Schmidt method in the present paper. Using 2D Fourier transform and defining the jumps of displacement components across the crack surface as the unknown functions, three pairs of dual integral equations are derived. To solve the dual integral equations, the jumps of the displacement components across the crack surfaces are expanded in a series of Jacobi polynomials. Numerical examples are provided to show the effects of the geometric shape of the rectangular crack, the characteristics of the harmonic wave and the distance between two rectangular cracks on the DSIFs of the transversely isotropic elastic material.
