APPLICATION OF THE METHOD OF INTEGRAL CROSS-SECTIONS 
FOR ESTIMATING THE EFFECTIVE ELASTIC PROPERTIES 
OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS

We substantiate estimates of the upper and lower bounds 
of  the  effective  elasticity  modulus  of   piecewise 
homogeneous  bodies.  Using  the  method  of   integral 
cross-sections, we solve the elastic problem concerning 
the bending of a Kirchhoff inhomogeneous  square  plate 
and  find  the  effective cylindrical stiffness of this 
inhomogeneous plate for various geometric parameters of 
inclusion, as well as determine  the  upper  and  lower 
bounds  of  the  effective  stiffness  for  the  set of 
problems considered.
