Compressive behavior of tailor-made metallic foams (TMFs): Numerical simulation and statistical modeling

Numerical analysis of compressive deformation for random closed-cell Al foam model

“…As the cells were compacted, the model went through hardening stage and eventually entered into densification stage. Therefore, the hardening and densification can be attributed to the squeeze and friction between compacting cells at high strain levels [12,[17][18][19][20]. Furthermore, as seen in figure 4, the load-displacement curve of the model with a porosity of 60.7% exhibits glaring variation in comparison to the other two models.…”

“…Based on the actual foam structure, many numerical models have been developed to simulate the mechanical behavior of foams subjected to uniaxial compression. The uniform foam as a simplified model was used by many researchers to simulate the compression of metal foam [19,20]. The effect of cell-size, cell-wall-thickness, cell shapes and porosity on the compressive performance were studied systematically on the basis of various FE half symmetrical uniform model (in 2-Dimensional) [21][22][23][24].…”

Modelling and simulation on behaviours of mild steel

“…In this case, the existing models play important roles for solving problems. There are many authors (Doner et al [1], Kaufhold et al [2], Wang et al [3], Nayyeri et al [4]) who have worked on modelling and simulation on different metallic materials. This paper is based on the numerical simulation of the experimental work presented by Singh et al [5] in which obtained material parameters of C-S model [6] and J-C model [7] are used to simulate the problem in ANSYS.…”
