A Continuum Damage Mechanics Model for the Static and Cyclic Fatigue of Cellular Composites

The fatigue behavior of a cellular composite with an epoxy matrix and glass foam granules is analyzed and modeled by means of continuum damage mechanics. The investigated cellular composite is a particular type of composite foam, and is very similar to syntactic foams. In contrast to conventional sy...
