Abstract
We describe here three models of fibrous materials in conduction (the results apply as well in elasticity). The fibers are not periodically arranged but their orientation varies continuously in the material. Th e human heart is an example of such a material. The models are obtaine d through the homogenization of the fibrous structure.
