Abstract
A comparative study of various idealized models for geometric structure of highly porous cellular materials is carried out. The study is based on statistical parameters describing the geometric structure of these materials. A tetrakis dodecahedron model is chosen as the closest to the geometry of cells of highly porous cellular material and relatively simple for creation of physical and functional models of the material.
