- Description
- This paper addresses the mechanical properties of Corevo® aluminium foam. The effective Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, and material yield stress are determined. To this end, samples are tested using uni-axial compressive testing. In addition, micro-computed tomography data of the complex material geometry are obtained and converted into finite element calculation models. The numerical analysis further enables the testing of mechanical material anisotropy and plastic deformation within the material’s meso-structure.
