Abstract

The Porous Microstructure Analysis (PuMA) software was developed to provide a robust and efficient framework for computing material properties based on their microstructures. The development was motivated by advancements in X-ray microtomography, an imaging technology that can resolve the structure of a material at a sub-micron scale, in 3D and even in 4D (over time). PuMA provides the capability of computing a comprehensive spectrum of properties, from the most fundamental geometric features of a microstructure, to advanced anisotropic thermo-elastic properties. In addition, the software can generate artificial microstructures, ranging from simple analytical shapes to complex fibrous woven and non-woven geometries, which can be used in performance optimization studies. This presentation will highlight many of the capabilities of the recent open-source release.
