Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Porous Metals and Metallic Foams (MetFoam 2019)
The purpose of MetFoam conference series is to provide a state-of-the-art review on lightweight porous metals and metallic foams and a forum for discussions and networking opportunities for scientists working in this field. Topics included in this volume include the following: • Fabrication by conventional and novel methods including additive manufacturing • Characterization • Properties of compressed and uncompressed foam • Design of porous metals, metallic foams, and lattice structures• Fluid, heat, and mass transfer • Porous biomaterials• Nanoporous metals• Industrial applications of porous metals and metallic foams
Blast Mitigation Strategies in Marine Composite and Sandwich Structures
This book primarily focuses on methodologies to enable marine structures to resist high velocity impact loadings. It is based on invited talks presented at the recent India–USA workshop on “Recent Advances in Blast Mitigation Strategies in Civil and Marine Composite Structures” The book comprises content from top researchers from India and the USA and covers various aspects of the topic, including modeling and simulation, design aspects, experimentation and various challenges. These failure modes significantly reduce the structural integrity of the marine structures unless they are designed to resist such harsh loadings. Understanding the mechanics of these structures under harsh loadings is still an open area of research, and the behavior of these structures is not fully understood. The book highlights efforts to reduce the effects of blast loadings on marine composite structures. Intended for researchers/scientists and practicing engineers, the book focuses not only the design and analysis challenges of marine composite structures under such harsh loading conditions, but also provides new design guidelines.
Materials and Contact Characterisation IX
Including papers from the 9th edition of the International Conference on Computational Methods and Experiments in Material and Contact Characterisation this volume presents the work of selected researchers on the subject. Material and contact characterisation is a rapidly advancing field and this volume contains the latest research. Of particular interest to industry and society is the knowledge of surface treatment and contact mechanics of these materials to determine the in-service behaviour of components subject to contact conditions. Modern society requires systems that operate at conditions that use resources effectively. In terms of components durability, the understanding of surface e...
Polymeric Foams
Advances in nanotechnology have boosted the development of more efficient materials, with emerging sectors (electronics, energy, aerospace, etc.) demanding novel materials to fulfill the complex technical requirements of their products. This is the case of polymeric foams, which may display good structural properties alongside functional characteristics through a complex composition and (micro)structure in which a gas phase is combined with rigid ones, mainly based on nanoparticles, dispersed throughout the polymer matrix. In recent years, there has been an important impulse in the development of nanocomposite foams, extending the concept of nanocomposites to the field of cellular materials....
Metal Matrix Composites
With a focus on advances in metal matrix composite (MMC) fabrications from a theoretical and experimental perspective, this book describes the recent developments in the manufacturing of MMCs, various processing methods and parameters, mechanical properties and synthesis of MMCs. It deals with several multi-criteria decision-making techniques suggested to choose the best materials for application and the effects of reinforcement on chip formation, tool wear and part quality during the machining. Features: Discusses modeling of metal matrix composites (MMC) and fabrication of hybrid MMCs Covers advanced characterization studies of nanocomposites Reviews high-temperature applications and cobalt-nickel combination materials Provides inputs regarding optimal selection of percentage of reinforcement materials for MMC’s fabrication based on industrial requirements Focuses on aerospace and automotive industries This book is aimed at graduate students, researchers and professionals in micro/nanoscience and technology, mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, metallurgy and composites.
Fracture, Fatigue and Structural Integrity of Metallic Materials
Fracture, fatigue, and other subcritical processes, such as creep crack growth or stress corrosion cracking, present numerous open issues from both scientific and industrial points of view. These phenomena are of special interest in industrial and civil metallic structures, such as pipes, vessels, machinery, aircrafts, ship hulls, and bridges, given that their failure may imply catastrophic consequences for human life, the natural environment, and/or the economy. Moreover, an adequate management of their operational life, defining suitable inspection periods, repairs, or replacements, requires their safety or unsafety conditions to be defined. The analysis of these technological challenges r...
Metal Matrix Syntactic Foams
Complete guide for materials, engineering, modeling and processing of novel syntactic material Lightweight metal-type foams for aeronautical, recreational and electronic applications Focused on a new type of material, the book investigates the elements, synthesis and practical applications of metal matrix syntactic foams, which share properties of foams and metal matrix composites. The text reviews how syntactic foams are synthesized from different types of hollow particles and metal matrixes. Part one explains processing techniques such as solidification and powder metallurgy and discusses foams made from a variety of matrix metals. Part two compares different syntactic foams based on density and strain rate. Original experimental data and modeling information are provided that show how metal matrix syntactic foams can be used for lighter weight components in vehicles, as well as for sensors and biomaterials.
