Abstract
Huet's model for overall properties of specimens smaller than the representative volume is generalized on nonlinear heterogeneous elastic materials with imperfect interfaces. A modified definition for the apparent properties of heterogeneous nonlinear elastic bodies is given. The size effect relationships are established between experimental results obtained on a big specimen and on an appropriate set of smaller specimens. Hierarchies between the apparent properties of the families of specimens of different sizes are constructed.
