Abstract
In this study, the validity of the Eshelby-type model for predicting the effective Young's modulus and in-plane Poisson's ratio of the 2-dimensional perforated plate has been investigated in terms of the porosity size and its arrangement. The predicted results by the Eshelby-type model are compared with those by finite element analysis. Whenever the ratio of the porosity size to the specimen size becomes smaller than 0.07, the effective elastic constants predicted by finite element analysis are convergent regardless of the arrangement of the porosities. Under these conditions, the effective Young's moduli of the perforated plate can be predicted within the accuracy of 5% by the Eshelby-type model, which overestimates and underestimates the effective Poisson's ratios by 10% and 6% for the plates with periodically and non-periodically arranged porosities, respectively.
