Analysis of Active and Passive Deformation of Expanded Polystyrene Foam under Short-Term Compression

In this paper, we undertake a detailed analysis of the active and passive deformation of expanded polystyrene (EPS), which is used as a thermal insulating layer in building partitions, under short-term compressive loading. The values of residual strain in 10–40 kg/m<sup>3</sup> density E...
