Tensile tests have been performed on replicated aluminum alloy foams of relative density between 4.5% and 8%. During the test the electrical resistance was measured with a four-point set-up and the displacements along the gage section were measured using a digital image correlation (DIC) technique.

The room-temperature mechanical properties of a closed-cell, polyurethane encapsulant foam were measured as a function of foam density. Over the range of densities examined, the modulus could be described by a power-law relationship with respect to density. This power-law relationship was the same f
Quasi-static compression tests have been performed on polyurethane foam specimens. The modulus of the foam exhibited a power-law dependence with respect to density of the form: E\* Ο° (\*) n , where n Ο 1.7. The modulus data are described well by a simple geometric model (based on the work of Gibson
