Experimental study on size effect in quasi-static compressive behavior of closed-cell aluminium foams
Koudelka_ml., Petr ; Zlámal, Petr ; Kytýř, Daniel ; Fíla, Tomáš ; Jiroušek, Ondřej
The size effect in compressive deformation behaviour of commercially available aluminium closed-cell foam Alporas was studied under quasi-static loading conditions with different boundary conditions. Dimensions of the specimen’s cross-section were selected to match those of sufficient representative volume element (RVE) obtained by spectral analysis of the macroscopic structure whereas different heights of specimens were tested to examine size-scaling factor. Mechanical properties were derived from three different data sources: I) using data captured by load-cell, II) by digital image correlation (DIC) of displacement of contact faces, III) by DIC of the specimen’s structure. Mechanical testing was performed in custom-built loading device as well as in Instron 4301 electromechanical testing system with custom computer control software.
