• Abstract: The local geometrical randomness of metal foams brings complexities to the performance prediction of porous structures. Although the relative density is commonly deemed as the key factor, the stochasticity of internal cell sizes and shapes has an apparent effect on the porous structural behaviour but the corresponding measurement is challenging. To address this issue, we are aimed to develop an assessment strategy for efficiently examining the foam properties by combining multiscale modelling and deep learning. The multiscale modelling is based on the finite element (FE) simulation employing representative volume elements (RVEs) with random cellular morphologies, mimicking the typical features of closed-cell Aluminium foams. A deep learning database is constructed for training the designed convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to establish a direct link between the mesoscopic porosity characteristics and the effective Youngs modulus of foams. The error range of CNN models leads to an uncertain mechanical performance, which is further evaluated in a structural uncertainty analysis on the FG porous three-layer beam consisting of two thin high-density layers and a thick low-density one, where the imprecise CNN predicted moduli are represented as triangular fuzzy numbers in double parametric form. The uncertain beam bending deflections under a mid-span point load are calculated with the aid of Timoshenko beam theory and the Ritz method. Our findings suggest the success in training CNN models to estimate RVE modulus using images with an average error of 5.92%. The evaluation of FG porous structures can be significantly simplified with the proposed method and connects to the mesoscopic cellular morphologies without establishing the mechanics model for local foams.
