Conceptualising a Hybrid Flying and Diving Craft
This paper introduces the conceptual design of a submersible seaplane that merges the maturity of the wing-in-ground (WIG or ekranoplan) crafts and seaplanes with covert hybrid underwater insertion, travel, and recovery.

Development and evaluation of hybrid aluminium matrix syntactic foams [PDF]
A special class of metallic foams, the so called metal matrix syntactic foams was produced by pressure infiltration technique. Metal matrix syntactic foams consist of a light-weight metal matrix and a set of hollow spheres.

X‐Ray Tomography Analysis of Damage Mechanisms in Metal Matrix Syntactic Foams During Compression
In situ synchrotron X‐ray tomography is used to investigate the internal damage mechanisms of AlSi12 metal matrix syntactic foam with ceramic hollow spheres during compressive loading. It is concluded that a homogeneous distribution of the second‐phase filler material results in a sequential collapse in a localized region; this leads to controlled and ...

Manufacturing of Composites by Pressure Infiltration, Structure and Mechanical Properties [PDF]
This paper presents the possibility of composite block production by using pressure infiltration technology. This method uses the pressure of an inert gas (usually argon or nitrogen) to force the melted matrix material to infiltrate the reinforcing ...

Fabrication‐Directed Entanglement for Designing Chiral and Anisotropic Metamaterial Foams
This work introduces fabrication‐directed entanglement (FDE), combining viscous thread printing and topology optimization to program entangled foams with spatially patterned stiffness. By tuning coil density, FDE enables anisotropy, programmable Poisson's ratio, and chirality in foams.
