Abstract: | The elastic deformation of plastic foams with a low (< 6%) volume fraction of solid phase is described based on a 4-rod equivalent
element. A criterion is proposed which allows one to determine the parameter of structure of this element. Based on an analysis
of the equivalent element, a procedure is developed for constructing the compression diagram of plastic foams in the region
of large (> 70%) strains. The calculation results are compared with data found in the literature and experimental results
for polyurethane foams obtained by the present authors.
