Micro Abstract:
3D microstructure with a cubic dimension of 100 $\mu \mathrm{m}^3$ was generated by X-ray computed tomography. Its mechanical properties were predicted by the microstructure informed lattice model. Considering the heterogeneous nature of this material, 30 specimens were investigated. Correlation analysis was conducted between the simulated mechanical properties and porosity.
