  I am not sure if I understand your question correctly, but do you know what the distribution is like? If the 20% Si is represented as random particles, then you should be able to use that for your RVE.
  If you don't know what the distribution may look like, there isn't a way to define the RVE in such cases. For example, if the 20% is uniformly distributed, you may consider just using ratios to determine your effective properties based on the volume fraction.

  Thank you for your answer.
  I want to represent 20% Si as random particles. So want to know the procedure for creating RVE using Random Particle.
  Thanks and Regards

  In the Ansys documentation, under "Mechanical Designer User's Guide -> 1. Getting Started -> 1.4 Tutorials", you'll find some tutorials to get you started. Although the 3 tutorials don't use "Random Particle", it shows you the basic setup and workflow - the only difference is the selection of "Random Particle".
