Abstract
This research proposed an inverse method to calculate the mechanical property of a chicken eggshell. The optimization method had been performed to determine the simulated results of the finite element analysis in order to predict Young’s Modulus of the eggshell. To obtain an accurate mechanical property of the eggshell, the finite element analysis was verified by comparison with the experimental results. There was found that the error of the coupling calculation method between the inverse method and finite element method was less than 0.1%. Consequently, the inverse method and finite element analysis can be used to determine the mechanical property of the other eggshell types in the further work.
