About this ebook

Schaumartige und poröse Materialien besitzen andere Eigenschaften als die zugrunde liegenden massiven Feststoffe. Sie werden beispielsweise für Hitzeschilde in der Raumfahrt, zur Aufpralldämpfung in Fahrzeugen, zur Schallisolierung oder als besonders leichte strukturierte Werkstoffe verwendet.

Neben der Beschreibung der zum Verständnis erforderlichen Grundlagen vermittelt das Buch neueste Erkenntnisse über die Eigenschaften und Anwendungen schaumartiger und poröser Materialien. Es behandelt zudem alle wichtigen analytischen und numerischen Methoden zur Charakterisierung und Vorausberechnung thermischer Eigenschaften. Theoretische und experimentelle Aspekte werden zu diesem Zweck geschickt kombiniert.

Das Buch richtet sich gleichermaßen an Festkörper- und Oberflächenchemiker, Physiker und Materialwissenschaftler und ist auch für Studenten der entsprechenden Fachrichtungen empfehlenswert.

About the author

Andreas Ochsner is Professor in the Department of Applied Mechanics at the Technical University of Malaysia, Malaysia. Having obtained a Master Degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the Universityof Stuttgart (1997), Germany, he spent the time from 1997-2003 at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg as a research and teaching assistant to obtain his Ph.D. in Engineering Sciences. From 2003-2006, he worked as Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Head of the Cellular Metals Group of the affiliated research unit of the University of Aveiro, Portugal. He has published over 140 research papers and organized three international conferences on diffusion in solids and liquids.

Graeme E. Murch is Professor of Materials Engineering (Personal Chair) and Head of the Solid State Diffusion Group of the School of Engineering at the University of Newcastle, Australia. He has published over 200 research papers and is author of 3 book chapters. The work of his research group is focused among others on the development of new Monte Carlo Approaches for complex heat and mass diffusion problems in solids. Professor Much is the Editor of the periodicals Materials Science Forum and Defect and Diffusion Forum/Solid State Phenomena.

Marcelo J. S. de Lemos is Professor in the Computational Transport Phenomena Laboratory of the Aeronautical Institute of Technology ITA, Brazil. After obtaining his Master of Science Degree in 1979 on Mechanical Engineering from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, he spent four years at Purdue University, USA, to obtain his Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering. He received Postdoc Fellowships at Argonne National Laboratory, USA, 1984-1986 and Ruhr-Universitat Bochum, Germany, from 1991-1992. Professor de Lemos has authored over 300 publications, including a book and four book chapters.
