• Thermal expansion behaviour of aluminum matrix composites with densely packed SiC particles (2008, unknown): “In general, most of the models employ a ‘‘unit cell” configuration, where one particle of simple shape is embedded in a continuous metallic matrix shell [22–27,29].”
• Generation of 3D representative volume elements for heterogeneous materials: A review (2018, methodology): “Various researchers employed the algorithm for generating RVEs with spheres [358,356], capsules [358], cylinders [359,360,12], ellipsoids [358,361] or approximations of those shapes via lines or convex polyhedra [12,362].”
• Numerical generation of a random chopped fiber composite RVE and its elastic properties (2008, methodology): “In the study of particle packing and particle reinforced composites the random sequential adsorption (RSA) technique has been used for spheres [ 16 ,26,28,37], spherocylinders [16,28], ellipsoids and rods [15,16,26,28].”

• Representative volume element for composites reinforced by spatially randomly distributed discontinuous fibers and its applications (2015, methodology): “Furthermore, a minimum separation distance between the surfaces of any two fibers and between the surfaces of any fibers and the cubic matrix, taking 5% of the fiber radius as an example [20], is required to ensure that the finite elements do not become distorted.”
