Composite materials are used widely because of it's excellent functional properties. The homogenization method has been proposed to evaluate effectively both homogenized material properties and microscopic stresses of composite materials. In this paper, the authors present a variational formulation and a finite element fromulation of the homogenization method for elasticity, heat conduction, thermoelasticity and dynamic viscoelasticity. To design composite materials, the authors develop a homogenization analysis system based on general-purpose finite element method code, ABAQUS. The results of the numerical analysis show that the proposed analysis system is useful from the point of accuracy.
