Use of low-density, reticulated, elastomeric foam impregnated with Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids to design an impact absorption material
… with Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids) under impact shows some complementarities and leads to the concept of a composite material that would take advantage of the properties of the two materials. To conduct an extensive design analysis, comprehensive models are developed to model the behavior …

Micron-scale liquid engineering for porous polymer patterning
… rich history of applications from insulation and impact absorption to superhydrophobic coatings, controlled drug release materials, biological scaffolds and photonic materials. Different approaches such as lithography, etching and direct templating were developed to produce porous polymers. There …

Evaluation of foam concrete physical properties and mechanical response under indentation
… a novel usage of foam concrete is found in impact-absorbing applications. Unlike structural concrete, the functional application of foam concrete also shows good feasibility for accommodating high-volume recycled fine particles. This potential brings a promising prospect to pursue the green …

The Effect of a Low-Velocity Impact on the Flexural Strength and Dynamic Response of Composite Sandwiches with Damage Arrestment Devices
<p>Impact strength is one of the most important structural properties for a designer to consider, but is often the most difficult to quantify or measure. A constant concern in the field of composites is the effect of foreign object impact damage because it is often undetectable by visual …
