In this edition on cellular solids, the authors have brought the
book up to date, including new work on processing of metallic and
ceramic foams and on the mechanical, electrical and acoustic
properties of cellular solids. Data for commercially available
foams are presented on material property charts; two new case
studies show how the charts are used for selection of foams in
engineering design. Over 150 references appearing in the literature
since the publication of the first edition are cited. The text
summarizes current understanding of the structure and mechanical
behaviour of cellular materials, and the ways in which they can be
exploited in engineering design. Cellular solids include
engineering honeycombs and foams (which can now be made from
polymers, metals, ceramics and composites) as well as natural
materials, such as wood, cork and cancellous bone. Case studies
provide worked examples of the selection of the optimum foam for a
range of engineering applications. This book should be of interest
to researchers working on cellular materials in materials science
and engineering, structural mechanics and biomechanics.
