... Metal foams Die casting Clay granules Slot milling Artificial neural network Metallic foams are advanced materials and are divided into two groups: open and closed cells (Chen et al., 2014). Recently, due to their spongy structure and lightweight, these interesting materials have...

...P.S. Liu; J.X. Sun Purpose The purpose of this paper is to introduce different methods for measuring the porosity of metal foams, and especially present a new method for conveniently measuring the open porosity that has a stronger impact on a number of physical properties of the porous product...

...A. Öchsner; J. Gr´cio This paper attempts to cover the thermal processes in syntactic metal foams. Regularshaped cubic closed‐cell structures with spherical pores are investigated by means of the finite element method. Based on the numerical modelling of the microstructure, the effective...
