- puma description.
+ The Porous Microstructure Analysis (PuMA) software has been developed in order to
+ compute effective material properties and perform material response simulations on
+ digitized microstructures of porous media. PuMA is able to import digital three-dimensional
+ images obtained from X-ray microtomography or to generate artificial microstructures
+ that mimic real materials. PuMA also provides a module for interactive 3D visualizations.
+ Version 3 includes modules to compute simple morphological properties such as porosity,
+ volume fractions, pore diameter, and specific surface area. Additional capabilities include
+ the determination of effective thermal and electrical conductivity (including the ability
+ to simulate local anisotropy), effective diffusivity and tortuosity from the continuum to
+ the rarefied regime, and techniques to determine local material orientation.
