A continuum approach to micro-inertia effects in closed-cell solid foams


Abstract eng:
The present work is devoted to the modelling of the behaviour of solid foams under dynamic loading conditions. Using micromechanics, a continuum model for micro-inertia effects in closed-cell foams is proposed. This simple model is aimed at improving constitutive models for foams by incorporating the contribution of micro-inertia. An application of the proposed modelling to shock wave propagation in metal foams is proposed. The influence of micro-inertia is found to be significant.
