Abstract :
This paper presents a numerical method based upon Boundary Elements (BE) for the calculation of the effective dielectric constant of a lossless random composite structure consisting of a two component mixture, each with its own dielectric and shape characteristics. The data obtained from the simulations investigated are compared to the results of previous analytical work
