Abstract

The development and use cases of an open-source filter for DREAM.3D that instantiates synthetic, grain-resolved, open-cell metal foam volumes are presented. The new capability allows for both synthetic-grain overlay of X-ray computed tomography data as well as fully synthetic foam geometry and grains. For the latter, a novel technique using Euclidean distances instantiates the 3D open-cell foam morphology, enabling user control of pore size, strut cross-section shape, and strut thickness variability. By integrating this approach into the DREAM.3D architecture, the entire DREAM.3D suite of filters is immediately available; thus, enabling both user control and quantification of grain size, shape, and crystallographic orientation statistics (among other metrics) as well as meshing algorithms to enable subsequent numerical analysis.
