Aluminium foam production using calcium carbonate as a foaming agent
… art with regards to the production of metallic foams is reviewed, with melt-based processes identified as the most promising for cost-effective large-scale production. The potential for metal carbonates as an alternative to currently-used titanium hydride foaming agents is explored, with calcium …

Cladding Protection of Reinforced Concrete Structural Members against Blast Loading
… significant. As an energy absorptive material, aluminium foam has been introduced to be a sacrificial cladding on structures. This thesis aims to discover the protective effect of aluminium foam on reinforced concrete (RC) structural members which has been a common structural type for existing …

The use of cellular materials to alleviate the damage from blast-induced fragments
… materials investigated in this study include aluminium foam, aluminium honeycomb, balsa wood, Corecell M‐80 foam, Divinycell H200 PVC foam and rigid polyurethane 200 foam. The 40mm thick energy absorbing materials are 106mm in diameter (same size as the exposed plate area) are placed in front …
