Review of Mechanics and Applications of Auxetic Structures

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2014
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.

Harnessing distinct deformation modes of auxetic patterns for stiffness design of tubular structures

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2021
Auxetic materials with a negative Poisson's ratio show a unique lateral expansion under tension while their deformation under shear is similar to that of normal materials.

Auxetic Cellular Materials - a Review

open access: yesStrojniški vestnik – Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2016
Auxetic cellular materials are modern materials which have some unique and superior mechanical properties. As a consequence of the structural deformation of their internal cellular structure they exhibit a negative Poisson’s ratio, i.e. they significantly increase in volume when stretched and vice versa. The effect of negative Poisson’s ratio is useful

A novel cement-based auxetic foam composite: Experimental study

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
Auxetic foam materials contract (expand) laterally under uniaxial compressive (tensile) load. Due to superior characteristics of auxetic foam, e.g., shear resistance and in-plane indentation resistance, studies of auxetic foam composites have been ...

Auxetic Materials and Related Systems [PDF]

open access: yesphysica status solidi (b), 2014
to mechanical metamaterials and related systems with particular emphasis on auxetic systems. Such materials show counter-intuitive, negative behaviours. For example, auxetic materials exhibit negative Poisson’s ratios which mean that these systems get fatter rather than thinner when stretched.

Additively Manufactured Hierarchical Auxetic Mechanical Metamaterials

open access: yes, 2022
Due to the ability to create structures with complex geometry at micro- and nanoscales, modern additive technologies make it possible to produce artificial materials (metamaterials) with properties different from those of conventional materials found in ...

Auxetic materials — A review

open access: yesMaterials Science-Poland, 2013
Auxetic materials are endowed with a behavior that contradicts common sense, when subjected to an axial tensile load they increase their transverse dimension. In case of a compression load, they reduce their transverse dimension. Consequently, these materials have a negative Poisson’s ratio in such direction.

Extremely Non-Auxetic Behavior of a Typical Auxetic Microstructure Due to Its Material Properties [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2021
The re-entrant honeycomb microstructure is one of the most famous, typical examples of an auxetic structure. The re-entrant geometries also include other members as, among others, the star re-entrant geometries with various symmetries. In this paper, we focus on one of them, having a 6-fold symmetry axis. The investigated systems consist of binary hard

Auxetic tubular scaffolds via melt electrowriting

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
Auxetics are an interesting class of materials that expand in transverse directions when tensile loading is applied. For example, in contrast to conventional materials, an auxetic tube will increase in diameter when stretched along its axis.
