Abstract:The development of advanced multi-material systems has become increasingly complex with regard to performance requirements, tailorable material options, and recent innovations in manufacturing technologies. The increased development and use of engineering foam material systems, for example, has recently led to significant improvements in the weight, cost, and performance of materials used in insulating, thermal protection, sound deadening, and lightweight structural materials. An important aspect of such compl… Show more
