Conclusions
-
1.
Consideration of stability loss significantly lowers the mechanical adequacy of the model under consideration for simulating an actual FP with an OPS for deformations that are of practical interest.
-
2.
The available SM for an FP with an OPS opens the possibility of controlling the PMC of FP by varying different parameters of the model: the GSE elongation factor in the direction of foaming; the coefficient of variation of the rod lengths; this makes it possible to regulate the FP structure and the PMC of the polymer-base: and, the reduced-length factor μ.
-
3.
The software program that we developed for calculating the PMC of FP can be used hereinafter to perform numeric experiments in developing FP with a prescribed set of PMC in lieu of physical characteristics; this will significantly reduce time and labor outlays, and make it possible to investigate the deformation mechanism.
