Computational report demonstrates image-based finite-element analysis to predict macroscopic behavior from microstructures, suggesting accessible tools for materials science modeling.
Determining a material's macroscopic properties given its microscopic structure is of fundamental importance to materials science. The authors describe two public-domain programs that jointly predict macroscopic behavior: OOF (Object-Oriented Finite elements) and ppm2oof (Portable Pixel Map to OOF format translator). The programs start from an image of the microstructure and end with results from finite-element calculations.
