"3520 linear quadrilateral elements of type R3D4 were used to mesh the upper and lower rigid plates. The deformable foam model with dimensions of 10*10*10 mm was meshed using 8000 linear hexahedral C3D8R components. Isotropic and elastoplastic foam compressive behavior was assumed." This is an excerpt from a study paper that I'm trying to validate. I'm having difficulty assigning elements in meshing as mentioned in the text. Also, please advise me on the material properties and parameter values I should utilise for closed cell foams.
