Mechanical Behavior of Metallic Foams

Gibson, L. J.·2000·Annual Review of Materials Science

Abstract

▪ Abstract Metallic foams have a combination of properties that make them attractive for a number of engineering applications, including lightweight structural sandwich panels, energy absorption devices, and heat sinks. For many potential applications an understanding of the mechanical behavior of these foams is essential. Recently, there has been substantial progress in identifying the mechanisms of deformation and failure in metallic foams. Here, we summarize the current understanding of the elastic moduli, uniaxial strength, yield criterion, creep, and fatigue of metallic foams.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
