Modulus of Cellular <strong>Materials</strong><br />

• Taking wood as an example, it<br />

is found that the moduli vary<br />

with (relative) density<br />

anisotropically.<br />

• Note the discrepancy between<br />

the equation <strong>and</strong> the slope in<br />

the plot. The theoretical<br />

prediction goes as (ρ/ρ cell ) 3 .<br />
