How can one simulate agglomerated cork in ansys and which engineering model can provide the better results?

08 August 2019 1 10K Report

I'm going to simulate the structural response of a sandwich structure with agglomerated cork core under bending and compression loading. Is there any reliable information about the structural behavior of cork under mechanical loading?
