Prediction of bulk mechanical properties of PVC foam based on microscopic model:Part II-Material characterization and analytical formulae

The bulk mechanical properties of a foam are strongly related with the modulus of elasticity and yield strength of the base material and the geometric features of the foam microstructure. This paper proposed a method to predict the bulk mechanical properties of transversely isotropic closed-cell pol...
