| Abstract: | In the present article, a version of the lattice or spring network method is proposed to model the mechanical response of elastic particulate composites with a high volume fraction of spherical particles and with a much weaker matrix compared to the stiffness of the particles. The main subject of the article is the determination of the axial stiffnesses of the springs of the cell. A comparison of the mechanical response of a three-dimensional particulate composite cube obtained using the finite element method and the proposed methodology showed that the efficiency of the proposed methodology increases with an increasing volume fraction of the particles. |
