The modified equivalent inclusion theory by the authors and the internal variable theory are employed to investigate the evolution of the microcracks in whisker toughening ceramics and the influence of the microcracks on the mechanical properties of the material. The effect of residual thermostrain, whisker content and aspect ratio is considered. The modulus, initial nonlinear load, strength and nonlinear constitutive relation are calculated and some important conclusions are given.
