Prediction of Effective Elasticity Moduli of Porous Composite Materials

Abstract—A method for calculating the effective elasticity moduli of porous composite materials is committed. Its distinctive feature is in calculating the elasticity moduli of the composite solid phase through the effective volume averaging of component deformations. Analytical dependences for calculating effective deformation volume averaging of the solid phase and its components are presented. The results of a calculation of the macroscopic Young modulus of porous composites agrees well with the experimental data.
