Numerical Investigation on Mechanical Behaviour of Closed-cell Aluminium Foams Using a Representative Volume Element Method
In this study, a representative volume element (RVE) method is developed to capture the mechanical behaviour of aluminum foams under compressive loadings. Octadecahedrons are selected for forming cells of a microstructured RVE model to simulate mechanical behaviour of the aluminium foams under quasi...
