Electrostatic and magnetostatic properties of random materials.

Scale dependence of electrostatic and magnetostatic properties is investigated in the setting of spatially random linear lossless materials with statistically homogeneous and spatially ergodic random microstructures. First, from the Hill-Mandel homogenization conditions adapted to electric and magnetic fields, uniform boundary conditions are formulated for a statistical volume element (SVE). From these conditions, there follow upper and lower mesoscale bounds on the macroscale (effective) electrical permittivity and magnetic permeability.
