The acoustic properties of porous materials containing dead-end (DE) pores have been proposed by Dupont et al. [J. Appl. Phys. 110, 094903 (2011)]. In the theoretical description, two physical parameters were defined (the dead-end porosity and the average length of the dead-end pores). With the knowledge of the open porosity (measured with non-acoustic methods), and the measurement of kinematic...

Additive manufacturing techniques can produce complex, high-value metal parts, with potential applications as critical metal components such as those found in aerospace engines and as customized biomedical implants. Material porosity in these parts is undesirable for aerospace parts - since porosity could lead to premature failure - and desirable for some biomedical implants - since surface-bre...

1 Flow in deformable porous media I 2 Abstract Many processes in the earth, such as magma migration, can be described by the ow of a low viscosity uid in a viscously deformable, permeable matrix. The purpose of this and a companion paper is to develop a better physical understanding of the equations governing these two-phase ows. This paper presents a series of analytic approximate solutions to...

BACKGROUND The authors of this manuscript aimed to show the importance of porosity and condensation in health according to traditional Persian medicine (TPM) with consideration of new evidence in conventional medicine. METHODS Cardinal traditional medical and pharmacological texts were searched for the traditional terms of takhalkhol (porosity) and takassof (condensity) focused on preventive ...

Analytical approximations for the acoustical properties of a rigid-porous matrix perforated by labyrinthine slits are developed using classical theories sound propagation in tortuous and absorption double porosity materials. Predictions enhanced low-frequency result from combination pressure diffusion labyrinth tortuosity if there is high permeability contrast between slit. Additional insight i...

The porosity of a material can be determined using a diversity of methods; however, the results from these methods have so far not been compared and analyzed for calcium phosphate cements (CPCs). The aim of this study was to compare a fast and easy method for porosity measurements with some commonly used porosity methods for CPCs. The investigated method is based on the assumption that when a w...

This study proposes the surface-perforated mortar (SPM) to mitigate railway noise. As one of most emerging noise problems, deteriorates quality human lives. paper investigates sound absorption performance SPM and it is compared that porous concrete which has been adopted as a potential solution for The effects hole size depth, surface porosity on examined using an in-situ test results explain m...
