Homogenization of Composites with Extended General interfaces: Comprehensive Review and Unified Modeling

Interphase regions that form in heterogeneous materials through various underlying mechanisms such as poor mechanical or chemical adherence, roughness, and coating, play a crucial role in the response of the medium. A well- established strategy to capture a finite-thickness interphase behavior is to replace it with a zero-thickness interface model characterized by its own displacement and/or traction jumps, resulting in different interface...
