Random Heterogeneous Materials: Microstructure and Macroscopic Properties

A heterogeneous material consists of domains of different materials or the same material in different states. This book provides graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics, physics, chemistry, materials science and engineering with a unified approach of treating the microstructure and effective properties of heterogeneous media. Although it covers the latest advances in the field, it is written in an accessible style and will be sufficiently well-contained for the non-expert wishing to learn the field.
