FoaMed Metal\nThe foam-shaped materials exhibit a continuously connected ligamented, reticulated open-cell geometry having a duodecahedronal cell shape. The foam-shaped material is in a density ranging from 1 to 20% theoretical, and a cell density of 10 to 50 cells per linear inch, with material density and cell density independently variable. Foamed materials are presently produced in a wide range of plastics, metals, and composites having either solid or tubular ligaments. The metals include aluminum, nickel, copper, silver, zinc, leads, tin, magnesium, and stainless steel [281]. Unfortunately, although the technology for fabricating foamed metal is available, there is no report found on foamed titanium yet.","divisions":[{"label":"Title","span":{"begin":6,"end":18}}],"tracks":[]}
