In a two-component composite material, the different combinations of component connectivity are indicated using two digits denoting the conductivity of the filler and that of the matrix respectively in this order. See R. E. Newham, D. P. Skinner, and L. E. Cross, Mater. Res. Bull. 13, 525 (1978). Fibers implanted in a matrix and oriented across one of the dimensions constitute a 1-3 composite.

24. The r/l dependence of the percolation threshold concentration in fier filled composites was also discussed by several independent groups, raising a legitimate doubt on the general validity of the square law dependence for intermediate values of r/l. Thus, there is some uncertainty over this issue. See J. Boissonade, F. Barreau, and F. Carmona, J. Phys. A 16, 2777 (1983); A. Celzard, E. McRae, C. Deleuze, M. Dufort, G. Furdin, and J. F.

47. G. K. Batchelor and R. W. O'Brien, Proc. R. Soc. London, Ser. A 355, 313 (1977). For a closely packed set of spheres randomly arranged in a matrix, Batchelor and O'Brien used lubrication theory and obtained for perfectly conducting spheres a logarithmic divergence of the effective thermal (or electrical) conductivity of the material, i.e., in our notation s* = 0. However, this result is by no means conclusive since it takes into account only dipolar interactions. See also for a more recent approach D. J. Bergman, Phys. Rev. B 39, 4598 (1989). Here, the author has derived analytical expressions for the divergence of ε′ and ε′ of cylindrical inclusions at the critical point. In this approach, the critical exponents s* = 1 and t* = 1 are mean-field exponents. However, as has been widely discussed in the literature, the predictions of mean-field theories often contradict many of the experimental data on random composite materials because these theories do not describe accurately the actual multipole interactions at the critical point.
