Modelling EPS Beads Distribution in 2D and 3D and Its Compressive Strength

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023
Abstract The paper aims to build a distribution model for the EPS beads distribution in 2 and 3 dimensions. An EPS distribution model is built firstly, in which the calculated 2D distribution with volume fraction of 10%,20%,30% and the radius of 1.35mm and 3.5 mm are compared with the real experimental image of EPS distribution, and the ...
