The stiffness and strength properties
for open cell and closed cell low-density materials are collected
and compared. These are the theoretical predictions for the
Kelvin cell type and the oct-tet cell type of open cell forms and
of the closed cell form from the generalized self-consistent
method. The strength properties considered are those for plastic
collapse and elastic instability, under both uniaxial stress and
dilatational stress conditions.
