Metallic foams have become widely available and have unique properties
that make them attractive for use in a variety of engineering applications. Due to
their complex structure, the behavior of foams under complex loading conditions
is a subject of continued research.
Digital volume correlation is a technique wherein full-field strains...
Local material damage that occurs within cellular solids, such as polymer foams and trabecular bone, and precedes local fractures of the cell struts or walls is called micro-damage. The accumulation of micro-damage within cellular solids is often undesirable, although it is thought to be vital to the development and health...
