A Study on Thermal Expansion and Thermomechanical Behavior of Composite Metal Foams

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The coefficient of thermal expansion of steel–steel composite metal foam (S‐S CMF) is shown to be lower than that of bulk stainless steel while its performance under compression demonstrate excellent mechanical stability and strength at all temperatures with gradualsoftening from 400 to 600 °C.

Assessment of risk due to the use of carbon fiber composites in commercial and general aviation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
The development of a national risk profile for the total annual aircraft losses due to carbon fiber composite (CFC) usage through 1993 is discussed. The profile was developed using separate simulation methods for commercial and general aviation aircraft.
