Compressive behavior and energy absorption capacity of unconstrained and constrained open-cell aluminum foams

In practical engineering applications, while the open-cell aluminum foam as crash absorber is filled to the hollow structures, its deformation occurs under constrained stress boundaries. The experimental work was conducted to examine the effect of radial constraints on the mechanical behavior of the...
