Numerical and Experimental Study of Quasi-Static Loading of Aluminum Closed-Cell Foams Using Weaire–Phelan and Kelvin Tessellations

Study of porous materials, in particular closed-cell foams, has always attracted researchers’ interest due to the advantages these materials offer in applications where low weight, buoyancy, insulation, or energy absorption is of importance. In this study, quasi-static compressive experimental tests are conducted for low-, medium-, and high...
