Abstract

In the effective medium approximation, an analytical solution is obtained for calculating the tensor of the effective conductivity of a polycrystalline medium with weak uniaxial texture. The medium is assumed to consist of a single type of biaxial spherical crystallites. The orientation of the crystallites is taken into account by means of the theory of rotation group representations. A solution generalized to triaxial textures is obtained.
