Abstract
The expressions of the effective elastic constants of composite material with cylindrical inclusions are derived based on M-T method, and it can be used in discussing the approximate range of effective elastic constant of air. Moreover, it is possible to homogenize tube-sheet by making use of the expression. The numerical result obtained is in good agreement with effective elastic constant adopted by the ASME code. It demonstrates that the approach is effective and accurate. At the last, the relationship between effective elastic and thickness of the tube-sheet is discussed.
