Solid cellular materials (foams, lattice materials, honeycombs,
etc.) are attractive and have resulted in the creation of an active
subject for structural, mechanical and material scientists in
recent years. Indeed, constant progress in the manufacturing
techniques are improving their properties and reducing their costs;
and mass productions and industrial applications are beginning. An
important mechanical problem is how to characterize and model the
mechanical behaviour of these materials, which is necessary for
industrial design and numerical predictions involved in various
applications such as light weight structures, energy absorbers.
This volume contains twenty-two contributions written by
distinguished invited speakers from all part of the world to the
iutam symposium on mechanical properties of cellular materials. It
provides a survey on recent advances in the characterisation and
modeling of the mechanical properties of solid cellular materials
under static and dynamic loading as well as their applications in
lightweight structures analysis and design. This volume will be of
interest to structural, mechanical and material scientists and
engineers working on different aspects of this new class of
materials (for example in microstructure observation,
micromechanical and multiscale modeling, phenomenological models,
structural impact behaviour and numerical validation).
