Study of mechanical properties and enhancing auxetic mechanism of composite auxetic structures

open access: yesEngineering Reports, 2021
The auxetic structures attract much attention because of their good properties, such as enhanced energy absorption capacity and buckling resistance. It is an important topic to combine the auxetic structures with other materials or structures to improve ...

Mechanical responses of 3D cross-chiral auxetic materials under uniaxial compression

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
Auxetic material is a metamaterial engineered to achieve negative Poisson's ratios through special design of microstructure. As a typical 3D auxetic material, 3D cross-chiral structures (CCS) possesses significant auxetic behavior and the mechanical ...

Core Spun Based Helical Auxetic Yarn: A Novel Structure for Wearable Protective Textiles

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Textile auxetic materials with negative Poisson’s ratio (NPR) have potential applications in protective textile, filtration, and energy absorbance. However, cotton core-spun based auxetic textile is rarely investigated.

Anisotropic properties of mechanical characteristics and auxeticity of cubic crystalline media

open access: yes, 2006
Explicit expressions for inverse of Young's modulus E, inverse of shear modulus G, and Poisson's ratio for cubic media are considered. All these characteristics of elastic media depend on three components of the compliance tensor S, and on direction ...

Geometric auxetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We formulate a mathematical theory of auxetic behavior based on one-parameter deformations of periodic frameworks. Our approach is purely geometric, relies on the evolution of the periodicity lattice and works in any dimension.

Elasticity of Auxetic Materials

open access: yes, 2023
The auxeticity of elastic materials is described and explained by the use of the linear and nonlinear models of elastic deformations for a wide range of strain values up to moderate levels. This chapter consists of three parts – general information on auxetic materials, description of auxetics by the model of the linear theory of elasticity ...

CORE-SHELL MODELLING OF AUXETIC INORGANIC MATERIALS

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2014
This paper investigates the suitability of the General Utility Lattice Program (GULP) for studying auxetic materials at the molecular level. GULP is a force-field based molec- ular modelling package which incorporates the ‘core-shell’ model for simulating polarisability. A validation procedure was performed where the capability of GULP to reproduce the

A Topology Optimization Framework for the Inverse Design of Nonlinear Mechanical Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work uses topology optimization to design unit cells for mechanical metamaterials with a prescribed nonlinear stress–strain response. The framework adds contact and postbuckling modeling to synthesize microstructures for three highly nonlinear responses, including pseudoductile behavior, monostable with snap‐through buckling, and bistable ...

Auxetic Materials for Sports Applications

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2014
AbstractIn this paper, the auxetic effect is introduced, the range of auxetic materials is briefly reviewed, and research demonstrating benefits having potential in sports applications is highlighted. These include the use of auxetic materials in impact protector devices (pads, gloves, helmets and mats) exploiting better conformability for comfort and ...
