MetFoam 2019 is the 11th edition of the biannual International Conference on Porous Metals and Metallic Foams; it was heled in Dearborn, Michigan, USA between August 20 and 23, 2019. Previous editions were held in various cities around the world starting in Bremen, Germany in 1999. This conference is the largest cross-disciplinary, international technical meeting focused exclusively on the production, properties, and applications of these lightweight multifunctional porous materials. In Dearborn, a total of 115 presentations were delivered at the conference by participants from 17 countries. Many participants travelled long distances to present and attend the conference. Students delivered 40% of the presentations. Emerging areas such as additive manufacturing and freeze casting, as well as nanoporous materials, cellular materials, and metallic metamaterials were covered by some of the presenters. The proceedings volume of MetFoam 2019 is the culmination of several months of work, which included the preparation of the papers by the authors, editing, and reviewing. The papers collected in this volume provide a representative snapshot of the research activity in the field. It is my sincere hope that this proceedings volume will remain a valuable record of MetFoam 2019, and that it will serve as a reference for researchers interested in porous metals and metallic foams. I would like to thank the reviewers and the session chairs for volunteering their precious time and effort. The International Scientific Board and the Steering Committee of MetFoam 2019 provided indispensable input and guidance throughout the planning of the conference. Thanks are also due to Kelcy Wagner and Trudi Dunlap from our organization partner The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS) for their assistance in the production of the proceedings volume, as well as for their vital hard work during the organization phase of the conference. Certainly, a special thanks go to our sponsors and exhibitors for making the event possible.more » « less

null (Ed.)This paper draws on fieldwork carried out between 2017 and 2020 as part of the project “Speculative Urbanism: Land, Livelihoods, and Finance Capital,” in collaboration with the University of Minnesota, funded by the National Science Foundation [grant number BCS-1636437]. We thank our colleagues Vinay Gidwani, Michael Goldman, Hemangini Gupta, Eric Sheppard, Helga Leitner, and other members of the research team for many discussions and debates. Earlier versions of the paper were presented at the Third Annual Research Conference of the Indian Institute for Human Settlements, Bengaluru, January 10–12, 2019; in the panel on The Peri-urban Question: Renewing Concepts and Categories at RC21@Delhi, September 18–20, 2019; and at the French Institute of Pondicherry, February 13, 2020. We are grateful to the organizers and participants of those conferences for their valuable feedback, as well as to the anonymous referees for their constructive comments. All photos are by Pierre Hauser, who we sincerely thank for allowing us to use his work.more » « less
