Abstract This paper will summarise the present state of knowledge concerning the elastic and dissipative properties of composite materials in the long wavelength or static approximation. In this case the material, although containing numerous inclusions or cracks or other types of microstructure, can be regarded as a continuum. Established results are listed for the elastic parameters following a review of approximate and exact methods of their derivation.
