Abstract
Porous titanium and alloy can be used for structural materials and functional materials, which are applied to in all fields. The difference of characteristics has great influence on the mechanical properties. The effect of research on the pore characteristics has great significance on the mechanical properties of titanium foams, the purpose of which is to obtain porous titanium foams with excellent properties. The influence of the porosity of porous titanium on mechanical properties has been studied by the finite element analysis software of COMSOL Multiphysics and digital image analysis software of Image-J. The porosity of porous titanium increases from 28.30% up to 72.30%, resulting in that the elastic modulus decreases from 30.77GPa to 15.94GPa, which are consistent with experimental results obtained by powder sintering technique. It shows that the elastic modulus decreases with the increase of porosity.
