In this paper, a new method is proposed for improving accuracy of microscopic stress analysis/stress sensitivity analysis of heterogeneous materials considering a geometrical variation of inclusions using the mesh superposition method‐based approach. In particular, the analysis, which considers a location variation of inclusions in heterogeneous materials with location change of a local mesh, is a target problem. This problem must be accurately solved for, eg, reliability evaluation with the multiscale stochastic stress analysis considering a microscopic geometrical variation of composites. The influence of a geometrical random variation of inclusions on the stress field is not negligible; further, a finite element mesh must be substantially updated for the evaluation of stress field for a significant realization. Therefore, the mesh superposition method based approach is adopted. In this paper, a problem point in the stress/stress sensitivity analysis considering the geometrical variation of inclusions when using the mesh superposition method is discussed, and improved approaches based on an improved formulation and a relocalization analysis are proposed. The proposed approaches are applied to a stress/stress sensitivity analysis of a heterogeneous material associated with a microstructure of composites. With the numerical results, effectiveness of the proposed approach is discussed.
