I-aluminiyam enegwebu luhlobo lwemathiriyeli ye-multicellular, luhlobo lwemathiriyeli ekhaphukhaphu yesakhiwo. Inomsebenzi obalaseleyo kunye nokukhubazeka okukhulu. Yimpahla elungileyo efunxa amandla. Isetyenziswa kakhulu kwiimoto, inqwelomoya, i-aerospace kunye namanye amabala. Ilungele ngokukodwa izithinteli ezahlukeneyo zokuthintela ukungqubana. Ngenxa yokuba ihlala isetyenziswa njengesixhobo sokukhusela impembelelo, yiDynamic shock compression performance ifumene ingqwalasela enkulu. Ngokuqhelekileyo i-aluminium enogwebu yenzelwe njengesakhiwo sepaneli yesandwich, oko kukuthi, into ebizwa ngokuba yi "sandwich" isakhiwo esakhiwe ngepaneli yentsimbi kunye ne-foamed aluminium core. Izinto ze-aluminium zineempawu zayo kwaye kwangaxeshanye isombulula ingxaki yamandla ayo aphantsi, okuyisakhiwo esithembisayo kakhulu.

Izixhobo ze-aluminiyam ezine-foam zineempawu zokudambisa kunye nokufunxa amandla othuko, kodwa amandla ombane we-aluminium enye aphantsi. Ukuze kuncitshiswe umonakalo wempembelelo yokudubula kumhlathi osezantsi wesakhelo, umaleko we-aluminium ugwebu wezinto zongezwa phakathi kwamaleko amabini epleyiti yentsimbi ukwenza i-multi-layer composite anti-explosion structure, ukuze kuqatshelwe imisebenzi yokukhusela ugqabhuko-dubulo kunye nokunciphisa ukothuka. Xa i-wave shock wave ichaphazela isakhiwo esidibeneyo, i-foam ye-aluminium ivelisa i-deformation yeplastiki kwaye ihlanganiswe. Ngenxa ye-impedance ephantsi ye-aluminium foam shock wave, amandla oxinzelelo loxinzelelo anokuba buthathaka kakhulu. Kule nkqubo, amandla omoya wothuso lomoya ayancipha, kwaye amandla obungqina bokudubula aphuculwe xa kuthelekiswa nemathiriyeli ye-monolayer.
