Progress of auxetic and semi-auxetic materials
Auxetic materials with negative Poisson's ratios, display the unique behavior owing to their micro-structure or geometrical build. Auxetic materials resist deformities when subjected to uniaxial, biaxial, and shearing stresses. Cellular based materials are known for their excellent impact and shock energy absorption.

A perspective on auxetic nanomaterials [PDF]
Nanomaterials have recently been found to exhibit auxetic behavior, or a negative Poisson's ratio, whereby the lateral dimensions of the material expand, rather than shrink, in response to applied tensile loading. In this brief review, we use the form of question-answer to highlight key points and outstanding issues related to the field of auxetic ...

Review of Mechanics and Applications of Auxetic Structures [PDF]
One of the important mechanical properties of materials is Poisson’s ratio, which is positive for most of the materials. However, certain materials exhibit “auxetic” properties; that is, they have a negative Poisson’s ratio.

Geometric construction of auxetic metamaterials [PDF]
AbstractThis paper is devoted to a category of metamaterials called auxetics, identified by their negative Poisson's ratio. Our work consists in exploring geometrical strategies to generate irregular auxetic structures. More precisely we seek to reduce the Poisson's ratio ν, by pruning an irregular network based solely on geometric criteria.

Auxetic mechanical metamaterials: from soft to stiff
Auxetic mechanical metamaterials are artificially architected materials that possess negative Poisson’s ratio, demonstrating transversal contracting deformation under external vertical compression loading.

We formulate a mathematical theory of auxetic behaviour based on one-parameter deformations of periodic frameworks. Our approach is purely geome- tric, relies on the evolution of the periodicity lattice and works in any dimension. We demonstrate its usefulness by predicting or recognizing, without experiment, computer simulations or numerical ...

Nanocomposites with auxetic nanotubes [PDF]
The effect of extreme and negative Poisson's ratio (auxetic) behavior from non-reconstructed defective (NRD) carbon nanotubes on the mechanical properties of nanocomposites is demonstrated. NRD carbon nanotubes (CNTs) produced by electronic or ion irradiation are metastable structures, which however can exist at low temperatures or when surrounded by ...

Investigating the Effects of Geometrical Parameters of Re-Entrant Cells of Aluminum 7075-T651 Auxetic Structures on Fatigue Life [PDF]
In this study, the effects of two geometrical parameters of the re-entrant auxetic cells, namely, internal cell angle (θ) and H/L ratio in which H is the cell height, and L is the cell length, have been studied on the variations of Poisson’s ...

Non-Auxetic Mechanical Metamaterials [PDF]
The concept of “mechanical metamaterials” has become increasingly popular, since their macro-scale characteristics can be designed to exhibit unusual combinations of mechanical properties on the micro-scale. The advances in additive manufacturing (AM, three-dimensional printing) techniques have boosted the fabrication of these mechanical metamaterials ...

Periodic Auxetics: Structure and Design [PDF]
Materials science has adopted the term of auxetic behavior for structural deformations where stretching in some direction entails lateral widening, rather than lateral shrinking. Most studies, in the last three decades, have explored repetitive or cellular structures and used the notion of negative Poisson's ratio as the hallmark of auxetic behavior ...
