The use of polymer foams is becoming increasingly important due to the attainable weight
reduction and value‐added properties. The development of foam structures is a popular …

Polymeric foams have found their way into different industry sectors due to their excellent
thermal and mechanical properties. Polymeric foams might undergo large deformation at …

This study elucidates the mechanical response of rigid polyurethane foam (RPUF) at
different strain rates and densities. A series of quasi-static and dynamic loading tests on the …

In this study, the effects of density, temperature, and impact energy on the dynamic behavior
of polyurethane foam (PUF) were experimentally investigated. PUF is used as the primary …

Research on nanocellular foams is motivated in part by the promise of physical properties, in
particular mechanical properties, that can go beyond the classical mechanical framework …

Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene/nanoclay/polymethyl methacrylate nanocomposites were
chemically foamed using injection molding process under different processing conditions. X …

In the automotive sector, special attention is paid to the study of the behavior of the structural
components that make the car bodies. The continuous demands on the weight saving imply …

Using the methods of effective moduli and finite elements, the elastic properties of foam
materials are investigated based on models of regular lattices composed of Gibson–Ashby …

The time-dependent behavior of architected lightweight cellular solids or foams is important
to investigate for various structural applications. In this paper, the authors studied the linear …

In this work, formulations based on composites of a linear polypropylene (L-PP), a long-
chain branched polypropylene (LCB-PP), a polypropylene–graft–maleic anhydride (PP-MA) …
