Micro Abstract:
Macroscopic properties of materials, e.g. the permeability of a filter or the mechanical strength of a fiber composite, are highly influenced by the microstructure. Models from stochastic geometry are valuable tools for studying these relations as they allow for the generation of virtual microstructures with controlled characteristics. The talk presents models for different material classes and explains how to fit the models based on geometric characteristics estimated from 3D image data.
