Density Dependence of the Macroscale Superelastic Behavior of Porous Shape Memory Alloys: A Two-Dimensional Approach
Figure 7
Elastic modulus as a function of PVF for both the RVE model for 3 different lattice sizes (a) and the UCFEM models (b). Convergence of the elastic modulus as a function of the lattice size is also depicted for PVF = 0.6 (a, insert).
