Dear Dr. I hope everything is going well with you, In one of your videos regarding the pure shear stress analysis you used the slope of the stress-strain graph and divided the value by 2 to get the shear modulus, Why in this video there is no dividing and only the slope is considered? Thank you for your time
It depends, if you do pure shear then you divide by two. If simple shear where you only have shear in one direction (then you can divide by two). I had a detailed theory about this in the videos where I described implementation of pure shear in 3D RVEs. There is a 2D shear one where i compared pure and simple shear. Please look at those videos as they would help you.

Hi Michael, how many inclusions can we generate ?
It is based on volume fraction rather than numbers of inclusion. It can generate any number of inclusions.
