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 issuesbicsscsemi-solidaluminum foamprimary crystalsSIMA processslope castingpore morphologyaluminium alloy foamrecyclingbeverage cansdirect foaming methodA-242 alloycellular materialscompositesfriction weldingfoamrecyclecompression testprecipitation phaseage hardeningaluminum alloy foamspowder metallurgycontinuous productionmechanical propertiesgradient compressed porous metalsound absorption performanceoptimal parameterstheoretical modelingcuckoo search algorithmfinite element simulationexperimental validationenclosed gasanisotropyelasticityplasticitymultiaxial yieldingopen-cell aluminum foamepoxy resingraphene oxidehybrid structuresmechanicalthermal and acoustic propertiesmetal foamaluminum alloysgrain refinementmodificationmicrostructuremechanics of materialsmetallurgymelt treatmentCALPHADliquid fraction, X-ray diffractionX-ray radioscopyX-ray tomographyX-ray tomoscopyporous metaldrainageclogginglattice materialtopology optimisationcrystal inspirationenergy absorptioncellular metalsX-ray computed tomographyinfrared thermographymechanical characterizationthermal characterizationacoustic characterizationopen-cell foampolyurethane foamgraphene-based materialsnanocompositesunidirectional cellular structureporosityfabricationexplosive compactionmetallographycomputational simulationexperimental testsaluminum matrix foam composite (AMFC)MWCNTchemical oxidationelectroless deposition nickelexpansionTechnology: general issuesDuarte Isabeledt1322386Vesenjak MatejedtFiedler ThomasedtKrstulović-Opara LovreedtDuarte IsabelothVesenjak MatejothFiedler ThomasothKrstulović-Opara LovreothBOOK9910557690403321Cellular Metals: Fabrication, Properties and Applications3034941UNINA
