Fatigue mechanisms of a closed cell elastomeric foam: A mechanical and microstructural study using ex situ X-ray microtomography

The degradation of mechanical properties of closed-cell elastomeric foams in fatigue and its link with the cellular structure is still poorly understood. To clarify this, we performed interrupted and continuous cyclic compression tests on EVA closed-cell foams used in running shoes. The 3D cellular...
