Abstract
Structure evolution during deformation of isotropic auxetic foams is investigated by simple compression experiments. It is shown that the main feature observed in the experimental data can be accurately described by an isotropic hyperelastic model with an Ogden-type strain energy function. The model can be easily implemented in a finite element code and, hence, can be used to simulate foams undergoing complex structural deformations.
