The past few years have seen an increasing interest in porous metallic materials, especially in foams made of aluminum or aluminum alloys. The stimulus for this lies in recent process developments which promise materials with better quality and lower cost. Moreover, the environment for the application of new materials has greatly changed. Nowadays higher demands for passenger safety in automobiles or for easy materials recycling make metal foams attractive where, a few years ago, the same material would have been ruled out for technical or economical reasons. This handbook gives any materials scientist and engineer involved in the research, development and application of metal foams an overview on the most recent results on new production processes, applications and industrial uses as well as the important topic of characterization and properties of these advanced materials.

Cellular ceramics are a specific class of porous materials which includes among others foams, honeycombs, connected fibers, robocast structures and assembled hollow spheres. Because of their particular structure, cellular ceramics display a wide variety of specific properties which make them indispensable for various engineering applications. An increasing number of patents, scientific literature and international conferences devoted to cellular materials testifies to a rapidly growing interest of the technical community in this topic. New applications for cellular ceramics are constantly being put under development. The book, authored by leading experts in this emerging field, gives an overview of the main aspects related to the processing of diverse cellular ceramic structures, methods of structural and properties characterisation and well established industrial, novel and potential applications. It is an introduction to newcomers in this research area and allows students to obtain an in-depth knowledge of basic and practical aspects of this fascinating class of advanced materials.

Cellular metals and designed porous structures are attractive, lightweight structural materials with potential applications in the transportation, electronics, biomedical, defense, building, and energy-based industries. Metal foams, sponge-like metals, and periodic geometry core structures are increasingly being considered as solutions to problems such as lightweight construction, heat exchangers, passive safety, sound dampening, filtering, and thermal stability. Momentum for the widespread use of cellular metal technology has been rising, but the field still remains at an early developmental stage. Processing and Properties of Lightweight Cellular Metals and Structures captures the current status of this emerging enabling technology. This book underscores the scientific community's enthusiasm in the outstanding potential of this unique group of materials and structures and hopes to stimulate even greater interest among research sponsors and industry. Papers cover a variety of key areas of development, such as new design concepts and functional properties, new processing technologies, microstructure and property characterization, reinforcement of foam metals, modeling of properties, component fabrication, and applications.

Additive Manufacturing (AM), more popularly known as 3D printing, is transforming the industry. AM of metal components with virtually no geometric limitations has enabled new product design options and opportunities, increased product performance, shorter cycle time in part production, total cost reduction, shortened lead time, improved material efficiency, more sustainable products and processes, full circularity in the economy, and new revenue streams. This Special Issue of Metals gives an up-to-date account of the state of the art in AM.
