A Cellular Automata Approach for the Modeling of a Polyamide and Carbon Aerogel Structure and Its Properties
In this work, a cellular automata (CA) approach was used to generate 3D structures of polyamide and carbon aerogels. Experimental results are used as initial data for materials’ digital representations and to verify the developed CA models. Based on the generated digital structures, a computer study...
