This paper shows different examples where the architecture of cellular materials has been determined exactly using 3D X ray computed tomography. The images were then subsequently used to generate FE meshes reproducing the architecture as exactly as possible. The FE meshes where in turn used to simulate the mechanical (monotonous and fatigue compression) and the thermal (radiative properties) behavior of the studied materials.
