Résumé

Closed-cell cellular polymer foams are the most efficient insulating materials commercially available. Their lightweight and mechanical resistance also make them ideal materials for packaging protection in the transport industry. A new method using guided \emph{acoustic waves in air} transmitted through samples of cellular foam panels, has been developed to recover their P-wave moduli and Poisson's ratios. These parameters were recovered from measured transmission coefficients of the foams through fitting to an elastodynamic transfer matrix method (TMM). The TMM integrates both the P and shear waves propagating in the layer. It was shown by using a finite element fluid-solid (elastic) interaction and an analytic P-waves-only model, that the two types of waves should be modeled to give a more precise representation of the data. The retrieved values were validated using vibration spectroscopy and from the measured velocity of a transient mechanical stress wave propagating in thin, long rod specimens cut from the panels. The problems inherent to these simple 1D characterization methods were pointed out and solved.
