Manufacture of graded porosity foams: simulation of local ultrasonic pressure and comparison with experimental results

The manufacture of polymeric solid foams with an engineered distribution of mechanical properties has been possible by irradiating ultrasound on a viscoelastic reacting mixture. Structures with a heterogeneous pore size distribution offer great advantages when compared to homogeneous distributions i...
