This article presents an example of the analysis of a powder composed of spherical particles. Since powders have a very fine heterogeneous structure, a multi-scale approach based on homogenization analysis is proposed. The macroscopic material behavior of the powder is obtained through virtual compression tests using a unit cell model representative of the microstructure. The microstructure is further homogenized by curve-fitting its material response according to the constitutive law of the macro material. The analysis was performed using Ansys® MechanicalTM and its add-on tool Multiscale.Sim.
