Morphological evolution and internal strain mapping of pomelo peel using X-ray computed tomography and digital volume correlation
B.Wang, B.Pan, G.Lubineau
Among natural cellular materials, pomelo peels, having a foam-like hierarchical microstructure, represent an ideal model for developing materials with high energy absorption efficiency. In this work, by combining X-ray tomographic imaging technique and digital volume correlation (DVC), in-situ stepwise uniaxial compression tests were performed to quantify the internal morphological evolution and kinematic responses of pomelo peel samples during compression.
