Structure and energy of liquid foams.

چکیده
We present an overview of recent advances in the understanding of foam structure and energy and their dependence on liquid volume fraction. We consider liquid foams in equilibrium for which the relevant energy is surface energy. Measurements of osmotic pressure can be used to determine this as a function of liquid fraction in good agreement with results from computer simulations. This approach is particularly useful in the description of foams with high liquid content, so-called wet foams. For such foams X-ray tomography proves to be an important technique in analysing order and disorder. Much of the discussion in this article is also relevant to bi-liquid foams, i.e. emulsions, and to solid foams, provided that the solidification preserves the structure of the initially liquid foam template.

In this paper, the behavior of energy absorption of crush-boxes, made of Aluminum foam advanced material, was investigated based on foam cellular structure homogeneity. Therefore, thin-walled tubes of Cu-Zn30wt.%.brass alloy with 27 mm diameter and 1 mm thickness were filled with A356-10vol.%SiC-Xwt.%. of TiH2 foam liquid. Foam samples with 1, 1.5, 2wt.%. of TiH2 were prepared by Form Grip into...

AbstractIn this paper, we investigate effect of Fe–intermetallic compounds on plastic deformation of closed-cell composite Aluminum Foam as filler of thin-walled tubes. However, deformation of the Aluminum foam-filled thin-walled tubes as crushed-box will be presented in Part (II). Composite foams of AlSi7SiC3 and AlSi7SiC3-(Fe) as closed cell were synthesized by powder metallurgy foaming metho...

Mechanics of CNT-reinforced nano-cellular PMMA nanocomposites are investigated using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations. Firstly, static uniaxial stretching of bulk PMMA polymer is simulated and the results are compared with literature. Then, nano-cellular foams with different relative densities are constructed and subjected to static uniaxial stretching and obtained stress-strain cu...
متن کاملSimulation of Foaming and Deformation for Composite Aluminum Foams
In this study, at the first stage, the rupture criterion of bubbles wall in Aluminum metal foam liquid was investigated by using Lattice Boltzmann. The two phases modeling were accomplished by using a modified Shan-Chen model. This model was run for several bubbles in A356+3wt.%SiC melt system. Then, bubbles morphologies (virtual metallographic) for A356+3wt.%SiC foams were simulated. Results s...

The brass tubes with foam cores of AlSi7SiC3, AlSi7SiC3Fe1 and AlSi7SiC3Fe3 were produced as the crush-boxes with circle and square cross-section. Then axial compressive behavior and energy absorption capability of the foam-filled tubes were investigated during the quasi-static progressive plastic buckling. The uniaxial compressive stress–strain curves of the foam-filled brass tubes exhibited t...
