The purpose of this paper is to study a toughening mechanism in the homogenization of composites with soft inclusions. To this aim, the space of special functions of bounded variation (SBV) is introduced. The theorems involve problems with SBV functions, whose solutions are neither affine, nor discontinuous. Several pictures illustrate the text.
