This work concerns composite materials called “syntactic foams”, ie, materials made by a
polymeric matrix filled with hollow solid inclusions. Explicit formulae for the homogenized …

Syntactic foams were fabricated by pressure-infiltrating liquid aluminum (commercial purity
and 7075-Al) into a packed preform of silica–mullite hollow microspheres. These foams …

The purpose of this work is the accurate prediction of the effective elastic moduli of syntactic
foams, for arbitrary selection of the volume fraction and material for the matrix and the filler …

Acoustic camouflage, which is realized by controlling wave propagation, has attracted great
attention in recent years. Aided by a reflecting surface, the acoustic carpet cloak has become …

All-polymer syntactic foams are studied under large strain cyclic and monotonic tensile
loading in order to reveal their tensile stress-strain behaviour, recoverability, tensile strength …

This work is devoted first to the derivation of the temperature field in an infinite medium
constituted of an n-layered isotropic spherical inclusion, embedded in a matrix subjected to …

Abstract Models predicting the conductivity of porous materials with spheroidal insulating
pores are summarized and a new model, based on our exponential relation, is proposed …

A non-conventional sandwich, made by a fabric panel core filled by a syntactic foam, and by
resin-impregnated fiberglass skins, is studied in the elastic range, with the aim of giving …

Recently, hollow thermoplastic microspheres, have emerged as an innovative filler material
for use in polymer-matrix composites. The resulting all-polymer syntactic foam takes on …
