A metallic cellular materials containing polymer was fabricated by the penetrating polymer into metal foam. The aluminum and stainless steel foams were selected for the metal foam and epoxy resin and polyurethane resin were selected for the penetrated polymer. The mechanical, damping shock absorbing properties of this material were measured. The results of the compressive tests show that this material has different stress-strain curves among the specimens that include different materials in the cells. Also, these results show that this material has high-energy absorption. The internal friction of this material was measured and the result shows that the internal friction of this material is larger than that of pure aluminum closed cellular material without any polymer and change with increasing of temperature. The shock absorbability of this material is larger than that of polymer and smaller than that of metallic cellular material.

Several methods of fabricating metallic closed cellular materials a spark plasma sintering (SPS) system have been developed. Powdered polymer particles coated with a nickel-phosphorus alloy layer using electro-less plating were pressed into pellets and sintered at high temperatures in a furnace using SPS system. Metallic closed cellular materials containing different materials from the cell walls were then fabricated. The physical, mechanical and damping properties of these materials were measured. The results of the compressive tests show that this material has different stressstrain curves among the specimens that have different cell wall thicknesses and the sintering temperatures of the specimens affect the compressive strength of each specimen. Also, it seems that the results of the compressive tests show that this material has a high-energy absorption. The internal friction of this material was measured and the results show that this internal friction is the same as that of pure aluminum. These results suggest that this material can be utilized as an energy absorbing and passive damping material.

New methods to fabricate a metallic closed cellular material for smart materials using an isostatic pressing and penetrating method are introduced. Powder particles of polymer or ceramics coated with a metal layer using electro-less plating were pressed into pellets and sintered at high temperature. These powder particles were sintered by spark plasma sintering (SPS) method. Closed cellular materials including polymer were fabricated by penetrating polymer into metallic foams. Many kinds of metallic closed cellular materials including different materials from that of cell walls were tried to fabricate. The physical and mechanical properties of these materials were measured. The results of the compressive tests show that this material has high-energy absorption and the result of measuring the internal friction show that the internal friction of these materials is larger than that of pure aluminum.

AbstractA new material for structures in space, which have a high energy absorbability has been developed using a powder particle assembling technique. Powder particles of polystyrene coated with nickel-phosphorus alloy layers using electroless plating were sintered at high temperature. A metallic closed cellular material containing polystyrene was then constructed.The mechanical and ultrasonic properties of this material were measured at both room and high temperatures. The compressive tests of this material show a low Young's modulus and high energy absorption. Ultrasonic measurement shows that the attenuation coefficient of this cellular material is very large and would change due to increasing temperature. These results indicate that this metallic closed cellular material can be used for the space applications.

Cemented particulate composite is a kind of composite material with high strength, high energy absorption, and multifunctional characteristics, which is widely used in engineering practice. The calculation of the mechanical properties of granular composites based on theoretical methods has always been a topic of discussion. A micromechanical model with a three-dimensional rigid beam-spring network (3D-RBSN) is proposed here. The stiffness matrix of the model was calculated theoretically. The model was applied to the analysis of the mechanical properties of composites material with glass beads and epoxy resin. The results indicate that the 3D-RBSN model can effectively predict the mechanical properties of composite materials, such as Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio. Furthermore, the damage evolution process of cemented particulate composite with initial defects was analyzed based on the 3D-RBSN model.

Laboratory freezing experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of polyacrylamide (PAM) and lignocellulose on the mechanical properties and microstructural characteristics of Tibetan clay. Direct shear and unconfined compressive tests and field emission scanning electron microscopy analyses were performed on clay samples with different contents of stabilizers. The test results show that the addition of PAM can improve the unconfined compressive strength and cohesion of Tibetan clay, but an excessive amount of PAM reduces the internal friction angle. After several freeze-thaw cycles, the unconfined compressive strength and cohesion of samples stabilized by PAM decrease significantly, while the internal friction angle increases. Samples stabilized by PAM and lignocellulose have higher internal friction angles, cohesion, and unconfined compressive strength and can retain about 80% of the original strength after 10 freeze-thaw cycles. PAM fills the pores between soil particles and provides adhesion. The addition of lignocellulose can form a network, restrict the expansion of pores caused by freeze-thaw cycles, and improve the integrity of PAM colloids. It is postulated that the addition of a composite stabilizer with a PAM content of 0.4% and a lignocellulose content of 2% may be a technically feasible method to increase the strength of Tibetan clay.

This investigation is focused on bending experiment of some prismatic perlite lightweight concrete. In these samples, textile waste fibers are confined with textile mesh glass fiber and embedded in the central part of cubic lightweight concrete specimens. Bending experiments revealed that lightweight concrete panels with a core of textile waste fiber have less density than water and high energy absorption and ductility. Furthermore, these composite panels by having appropriate thermal insulation characteristics could be used for partitioning in the buildings.


Fiber Reinforced Polymer composites are widely used in light weight automotive components. In this research work, the mechanical properties of acacia/polyester composites were studied. The composites were prepared in 10 and 20 wt% varying fiber loading, treated and untreated compositions using compression molding technique. The composites were tested for mechanical properties and their results were studied. The results indicated that the 10 wt%, treated Acacia ferrugenia/polyester composites showed better fire resistivity and high energy absorption characteristics.
