ResumoThe elastic properties of model random networks are studied, in which a fraction ${p}_{s}$ of the sites are randomly present and are connected to their remaining nearest neighbors by Hooke springs with force constant \ensuremath{\alpha}. The one-site-defect problem is solved exactly using Green's-function techniques specialized to the static elastic limit. The location of ${p}_{s}^{\mathrm{*}}$, the critical point at which all the elastic moduli vanish, and f(${p}_{s}$), the fraction of zero-frequency modes, agree well with the predictions of constraint-counting theory. In contrast to previously studied bond-depletion problems, it is shown both analytically and numerically that Cauchy's relation (${C}_{12}$=${C}_{44}$) is strictly disobeyed, even in the one-site-defect limit.
