Abstract
In this paper the macroscopic elastic properties of heterogeneous bodies are studied in terms of the elastic properties of freely orienting microscopic units. Special attention is given to the differences in predicted macroscopic behavior which result from simplifying assumptions regarding stress or strain within a heterogeneous body. By comparison with experimental data, the possibilities and limitations of the concept of freely orienting microscopic elastic units are shown.Keywords
