Aluminiyamu yokhala ndi thovu ndi mtundu wazinthu zambiri, ndi mtundu wazinthu zopepuka zamapangidwe. Ili ndi magwiridwe antchito abwino kwambiri komanso kupunduka kwakukulu. Ndi chinthu chabwino chotengera mphamvu. Amagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri pamagalimoto, ndege, zamlengalenga ndi zina. Ndiwoyenera makamaka pamagulu osiyanasiyana odana ndi kugundana. Chifukwa nthawi zambiri imagwiritsidwa ntchito ngati zida zodzitetezera, ndikuchita kwa Dynamic shock kwalandiranso chidwi chachikulu. Nthawi zambiri aluminiyamu yokhala ndi thovu amapangidwa ngati mawonekedwe a sangweji, ndiye kuti, mawonekedwe otchedwa "sandwich" wopangidwa ndi gulu lachitsulo ndi chitsulo chosungunula cha aluminium. Zida za aluminiyamu zimakhala ndi makhalidwe ake ndipo nthawi yomweyo zimathetsa vuto la mphamvu zake zochepa, zomwe zimakhala zodalirika kwambiri.

Aluminiyamu thovu zinthu ali ndi makhalidwe damping ndi kuyamwa mphamvu mantha, koma mphamvu ya zitsulo zotayidwa thovu limodzi ndi otsika. Pofuna kuchepetsa kuwonongeka kwa kuphulika kwa katundu wapansi pa chimango, chitsulo cha aluminiyamu chimawonjezedwa pakati pa zigawo ziwiri za mbale yachitsulo kuti apange gulu lamagulu ambiri odana ndi kuphulika, kuti azindikire ntchito zoteteza kuphulika ndi kuchepetsa kugwedezeka. Pamene kuphulika kwamphamvu kumakhudza kapangidwe kake, chithovu cha aluminiyamu chimapanga mapindikidwe apulasitiki ndipo amapangidwa. Chifukwa cha kutsika kwamphamvu kwa aluminium foam shock wave, mphamvu ya kupsinjika imatha kufooka kwambiri. Pochita izi, mphamvu ya kugwedezeka kwa mpweya imachepetsedwa, ndipo mphamvu yoteteza kuphulika imakhala bwino poyerekeza ndi ya monolayer.
