摘要
Nickel foam is widely used as the electrode, the catalyst carrier, sound absorption material and other application fields. The tensile behavior of the open cell nickel foam which is one of the most important parameters in the design process was investigated with the finite element method based on ANSYS software in this paper. The effects of strain rates and temperature on the yield strength of the nickel foam were obtained. The results show that the yield strength exhibit a nonlinear reduction with the increases of the temperature for the elastic bending of the struts of the reinforcement grew quickly depending on the temperature. However, the yield strength increases slowly with the improvement of the strain rate because the strain rate neither change the internal structure and properties such as the porosity and the aperture, nor alter the external circumstance in order to change the internal properties such as the temperature. The results of the simulation accord with those of the experiments, which is very important to understand the tensile behavior of the foam materials.
