Cellular and Porous Materials in Structures and Processes

by Holm Altenbach (Editor), Andreas Öchsner (Editor)

Overview

The book covers the state-of-the-art treatment in modelling and experimental investigation of the mechanical behaviour of cellular and porous materials. Starting from the continuum mechanical modelling, to the numerical simulation, several important questions related to applications such as the fracture and impact behaviour are covered.
