Compressive Properties of A2024 Alloy Foam Fabricated through a Melt Route and a Semi-Solid Route

A2024 alloy foams were fabricated by two methods. In the first method, the melt was thickened by Mg, which acts as an alloying element (melt route). In the second method, the melt was thickened by using primary crystals at a semi-solid temperature with a solid fraction of 20% (semi-solid route). A20...
