They are used in a wide range of commercial, biomedical, industrial, and military applications. In contrast to other cellular materials, cellular metals are non-flammable, recyclable, extremely tough, and chemically stable and are excellent energy absorbers. The manuscripts of this Special Issue provide a representative insight into the recent developments in this field, covering topics related to manufacturing, characterization, properties, specific challenges in transportation, and the description of structural features. For example, a presented strategy for the strengthening of Al-alloy foams is the addition of alloying elements (e.g., magnesium) into the metal bulk matrix to promote the formation of intermetallics (e.g., precipitation hardening). The incorporation of micro-sized and nano-sized reinforcement elements (e.g., carbon nanotubes and graphene oxide) into the metal bulk matrix to enhance the performance of the ductile metal is presented. New bioinspired cellular materials, such as nanocomposite foams, lattice materials, and hybrid foams and structures are also discussed (e.g., filled hollow structures, metal-polymer hybrid cellular structures).Cellular MetalsTechnology: general issuesbicsscA-242 alloyacoustic characterizationage hardeningaluminium alloy foamaluminum alloy foamsaluminum alloysaluminum foamaluminum matrix foam composite (AMFC)anisotropybeverage cansCALPHADcellular materialscellular metalschemical oxidationcloggingcompositescompression testcomputational simulationcontinuous productioncrystal inspirationcuckoo search algorithmdirect foaming methoddrainageelasticityelectroless deposition nickelenclosed gasenergy absorptionepoxy resinexpansionexperimental testsexperimental validationexplosive compactionfabricationfinite element simulationfoamfriction weldinggradient compressed porous metalgrain refinementgraphene oxidegraphene-based materialshybrid structuresinfrared thermographylattice materialliquid fraction, X-ray diffractionmechanicalmechanical characterizationmechanical propertiesmechanics of materialsmelt treatmentmetal foammetallographymetallurgymicrostructuremodificationmultiaxial yieldingMWCNTn/ananocompositesopen-cell aluminum foamopen-cell foamoptimal parametersplasticitypolyurethane foampore morphologyporosityporous metalpowder metallurgyprecipitation phaseprimary crystalsrecyclerecyclingsemi-solidSIMA processslope castingsound absorption performancetheoretical modelingthermal and acoustic propertiesthermal characterizationtopology optimisationunidirectional cellular structureX-ray computed tomographyX-ray radioscopyX-ray tomographyX-ray tomoscopyTechnology: general issuesDuarte Isabeledt1322386Vesenjak MatejedtFiedler ThomasedtKrstulović-Opara LovreedtDuarte IsabelothVesenjak MatejothFiedler ThomasothKrstulović-Opara LovreothBOOK9910557690403321Cellular Metals: Fabrication, Properties and Applications3034941UNINA
