| Project content | Hybrid porous materials (HyPo materials) possess a complex microstructure. In addition to the spatial arrangement of the pores, the distribution of materials with different properties is crucial for understanding local deformation and damage behavior. The main goal of the project is the development of numerical models and simulation strategies for capturing the material and damage behavior of hybrid porous materials. Using the phase-field method and the finite element method, damage evolution and crack propagation are modeled at the microscale. Special attention is given to process- and application-related conditions that lead to damage at the micro level. Furthermore, multifunctional material properties are addressed by considering thermo-electromechanical characteristics. Based on a detailed understanding of micromechanical damage phenomena, macroscopic strength properties are derived. The project relies on data from characterization projects that provide microstructural geometries and material data as inputs for the simulation. |
