Abstract
Bounds and expressions for the effective elastic moduli of materials reinforced by parallel hollow circular fibers have been derived by a variational method. Exact results have been obtained for hexagonal arrays of identical fibers and approximate results for random array of fibers, which may have unequal cross sections. Typical numerical results have been obtained for technically important elastic moduli.
