A skeleton-and-bubble model of elastic open-cell foams for finite element analysis at large deformations
We formulate a new unit-cell model of elastic open-cell foams. In this model, the conventional skeleton of open-cell foams is supplemented by fitting a thin-walled bubble within each cavity of the skeleton, as a substitute for the membranes that occlude the openings of the skeleton in elastic …

Unsteady Flow Behaviors Generated by Three-Dimensional Lattice Geometries as Measured by Laser Doppler Velocimetry
… or fluctuation level of the flow increases. Open cell foams and compact heat exchangers are two of the most common models applied for heat transfer augmentation. However, the small ligaments of open cell foams limit the heat conducted and smooth passages in compact heat exchangers cannot …

On the quasi-static and dynamic crushing of random foams
Lightweight cellular materials such as foams exhibit excellent energy absorption characteristics and are widely used for impact mitigation in a variety of applications. In this study a modeling framework is developed in order to investigate the crushing behavior of Al-alloy open-cell foams under …

Comparing the performance of different catalyst packings for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis
… a favourable product distribution. Furthermore, open-cell foams reactors have the potential to enhance external mass in fixed-bed reactors because of their tortuous flow channels and high geometric surface area. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of catalyst coated on a ceramic …

Mechanical Design of Selected Natural Ceramic Cellular Solids
… structure and mechanical properties of natural cellular solids such as wood and trabecular bone have been extensively studied in the past, the structural design and underlying deformation mechanisms of natural cellular solids with very high mineral contents (> 90 wt%), which we term as natural …
