A VARIATIONAL FORMULATION OF PROBLEM FOR THE CASE OF DISPERSED AND DISCRETELY REINFORCED MATERIAL
The idea of dispersed reinforcement has spread in the scientific literature the last two decades. Dispersed reinforcement in composites can be combined with discrete reinforcement, which imposes a corresponding imprint on the equations of the deformed state of the material. A rigorous formulation the problem of structural synthesis is solved by variation method. Scientific novelty of the article is a variational formulation for the case of dispersed and discretely reinforced material. As the original functionals were adopted functionals of Lagrange and Castellano. In the example, consider a beam of such material. The concrete cross section over the entire area of reinforced fibers, and the tensile zone has a steel rod armature.
