Kindly suggest if there is any other method to calculate avg strain/stress
using composite material where the size of elements in matrix and inclusion
are different.
DataPostprocessor is the wrong approach to the problem. It is used to generate
graphical output, but that is not what you want.
The average strain is
s_avg = \int_\Omega s(x) dx / \int_\Omega 1 dx
where the second integral is simply the volume. You can approximate both
integrals by a sum over all cells and then applying quadrature. For example,
the first integral is computed via a loop that will look roughly like this:
double s_integral = 0;
for (cell=....)
{
fe_values.reinit(cell);
fe_values.get_function_gradients (solution, solution_grads);
for (q=...)
s_integral += (compute strain/stress from solution_grads[q]) *
fe_values.JxW(q);
}
The volume of the domain is computed similarly, but you can also use
GridTools::volume() for that.
