To describe Maxwell’s method [3], a more general situation is considered where a uniform cluster of isotropic spherical particles of various types (rather than a single type) are embedded in an infinite isotropic matrix. The multiphase approach to be adopted enables various particle materials and/or various sizes to be modelled. This is a key characteristic of Maxwell’s methodology.
