Abstract
The elastic properties of an inhomogeneous medium with chaotic structure we re derived within the framework of a fractal model using the iterative aver aging approach. The predicted values of a critical index for the bulk elast ic modulus and of the Poisson ratio in the vicinity of a percolation thresh old were in fair agreement with the available experimental data for inhomog eneous composites.
