“…A properly designed AFS panels can optimize the mechanical and functional properties much more efficiently; in particular they have good inflammable, heat resistance, excellent vibration damping and high flexural rigidity, etc. (Banhart, 2001;Banhart and Seeliger, 2012). Due to the excellent mechanical and physical performances compared with aluminum foams, AFS panels have more promising application prospects, for example, the possibilities for making lightweight structure components in aerospace (Schwingel et al, 2007), automotive (Ashby et al, 2000;Banhart, 2005), and shipbuilding industry (Crupi et al, 2013).…”
