Derivation of temperature dependent material properties of polymer foam core materials using optical extensometry

A methodology for determining the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio of polymer foams is presented. The approach is based on a non contact measurement technique so that the behaviour of the complaint foam is modified by the attachment of gauges or extensometers. Firstly experiments are co...
