Metal foams are a fascinating group of materials that possess distinct physicochemical
properties and interconnected strut features with high surface area-to-volume ratios, high …

Stress shielding is caused by the mismatch of stiffness between bone and implant materials,
which may give rise to bone resorption and loosening, thereby causing implantation failure …

Efficient multi-path heat dissipation is urged to be designed for balancing the heat density
generated in highly integrated electronic devices. Herein, aluminum foam/carbon …

Metal foam (MF) is a cellular structure made up of solid metal with a substantial volume of
gas-filled pores or hollow reinforcements of the space holder. The porosity of the foam can …

This experimental work aimed to understand the effect of a biaxial combined compression-
torsion loading complexity on the mechanical properties of two types of aluminum foams …

In this work, we synthesized a brand-new Al foam with a periodic structure via a simple
powder metallurgical route. The periodic architecture consists of both hierarchical porous …

Fully open interconnected Al-foam having different PPI (Pores per inch) was fabricated
through the novel template method. The morphology of the open-cell Aluminium foam …

Lightweight carbon foams have attracted great attention in the past several years due to their
potential applications in heat sinks, heat exchangers, electrodes for battery and …

This study investigates the compressive properties of AlSi10Mg foams additively
manufactured with different foaming agents: TiH 2 and ZrH 2. The results of the compression …

This work analyzes the combined use of Discrete and Finite Element Methods (DEM and
FEM, respectively), in order to obtain models of fractal metallic foams close to real …
