Dynamic crushing response of closed-cell aluminium foams during shock loading

Understanding the impact response of aluminium foams is essential for assessing their energy absorption capacity under dynamic loading. In this paper, the dynamic compaction behavior of closed-cell aluminium foam (CYMAT ™ ) has been tested using the plate-impact technique. Post-impacted samples have...
