Since the 1960s, it has been a common practice worldwide to pursue a homogeneous
distribution of reinforcements within a matrix material, discontinuous metal matrix …

The Young's modulus of aluminum-based materials is one of the most important mechanical
properties in controlling structural performance. The improvement of the Young's modulus of …

Interpenetrating phase composites (IPCs)–composites in which each phase forms a
completely interconnected network–are becoming an important class of materials as the …

Bi-continuous alumina/aluminium composites were made by infiltrating an alumina preform
which had the structure of a reticulated ceramic foam. The low density preforms were …

The feasibility of processing lightweight interpenetrating phase composite (IPC) foam is
demonstrated. The composite is produced by infiltrating uncured epoxy-based syntactic …

The mechanical behavior of aluminum foam (AF)/polyurethane (PU) interpenetrating phase
composites (AF/PU composites) is investigated using a series of monotonic and cyclic …

Considering some inherent characteristics such as obvious mechanical anisotropy and high
