1 Lecture 7, Foams, Open-cell foams Stress-Strain curve: deformation and failure mechanisms Compression - 3 regimes - linear elastic - bending - stress plateau - cell collapse by buckling yielding crushing - densification Tension - no buckling - yielding can occur - brittle fracture Linear elastic behavior Initial linear elasticity - bending of cell edges (small t/l) As t/l goes up, axial deformation becomes more significant Consider dimensional argument, which models mechanism of deformation and failure, but not cell geometry Consider cubic cell, square cross-section members of area t 2, length l 1
