The methodology for determining the upper bounds on the homogenized linear elastic properties of cellular solids, described for the two-dimensional case in Dimitrovová and Faria (1999), is extended to three-dimensional open-cell foams. Besides the upper bounds, the methodology provides necessary and sufficient conditions on optimal media. These con...

... order to justify the definition stated above, it is necessary to verify that a curved beam cannot from part of the optimal low-density media. Let us suppose that the i-beam of a micro-frame basic cell is curved. Then a local coordinate system (z 1 , z 2 ) can be introduced so that z 1 connects the centers of the joints (Fig. 2). The middle axis of the beam is given by z 2 =a(z 1 ) and r designates the curved coordinate. Let us separate the beam of active length from the joints by the cuts shown in Fig. 2. It is assumed that there exists a plane containing the i-beam middle curve and that the macroload acts in such a way that the generalized internal forces in ...

Our work presents an extension of a composite sphere model to temperature-dependent elastic effects accompanied by curing. Homogenization of a representative unit cell (micro-RVE) on the heterogeneous microscale which accounts for thermo-chemo-mechanical coupling with linear elasticity yields volumetric effective properties. Two conceptions are con...
