Modelling of Mechanical Behavior of Biopolymer Alginate Aerogels Using the Bonded-Particle Model
A novel mesoscale modelling approach for the investigation of mechanical properties of alginate aerogels is proposed. This method is based on the discrete element method and bonded-particle model. The nanostructure of aerogel is not directly considered, instead the highly porous structure of aerogel...
