A Coarse Model for the Multiaxial Elastic-Plastic Response of Ductile Porous Materials

We propose a modeling strategy to predict the mechanical response of porous solids to imposed multiaxial strain histories. A coarse representation of the microstructure of a porous material is obtained by subdividing a volume element into cubic cells by a regular tessellation; some of these cells are modeled as a plastically incompressible elastic-plastic solid, representing the parent material, while the remaining cells, representing the pores, are treated as a weak and soft compressible solid displaying densification behavior at large compressive strains. The evolution of homogenized deviatoric and hydrostatic stress is explored for different porosities by finite element simulations. The predictions are found in good agreement with previously published numerical studies in which the microstructural geometry was explicitly modeled.
