New examples of three-dimensional dilational materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Two-dimensional dilational materials, for which the only easy mode of deformation is a dilation are reviewed and connections are drawn between models previously proposed in the literature. Some models which appear to be dilational materials, but which in

Deformation mechanisms leading to auxetic behaviour in the α-cristobalite and α-quartz structures of both silica and germania [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Analytical expressions have been developed in which the elastic behaviour of the α-quartz and α-cristobalite molecular tetrahedral frameworks of both silica and germania are modelled by rotation, or dilation or concurrent rotation and dilation of the ...

Elastic analysis of auxetic cellular structure consisting of re-entrant hexagonal cells using a strain-based expansion homogenization method

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2018
In this paper, an auxetic cellular structure consisting of re-entrant hexagonal cells have been analyzed, exhibiting different elastic properties in two orthogonal directions.

Universal Negative Poisson Ratio of Self Avoiding Fixed Connectivity Membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We determine the Poisson ratio of self-avoiding fixed-connectivity membranes, modeled as impenetrable plaquettes, to be sigma=-0.37(6), in statistical agreement with the Poisson ratio of phantom fixed-connectivity membranes sigma=-0.32(4).

Fixed-Connectivity Membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The statistical mechanics of flexible surfaces with internal elasticity and shape fluctuations is summarized. Phantom and self-avoiding isotropic and anisotropic membranes are discussed, with emphasis on the universal negative Poisson ratio common to the

Auxetic two-dimensional lattice with Poisson's Ratio arbitrarily close to -1

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we propose a new lattice structure having macroscopic Poisson's ratio arbitrarily close to the stability limit -1. We tested experimentally the effective Poisson's ratio of the micro-structured medium; the uniaxial test has been performed ...

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.

The structure response of sandwich beams with metallic auxetic honeycomb cores under localized impulsive loading-experiments and finite element analysis

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2019
In recent years, auxetic cellular materials such as auxetic reentrant honeycombs were widely studied due to its attractively negative Poisson's ratio.

Deformation of Gels with Spherical Auxetic Inclusions

open access: yesGels, 2022
Auxetic metamaterials possess unnatural properties, such as a negative Poisson’s ratio, which offers interesting features when combined with traditional materials.

A 2D metamaterial with auxetic out-of-plane behavior and non-auxetic in-plane behavior

open access: yes, 2017
Customarily, in-plane auxeticity and synclastic bending behavior (i.e. out-of-plane auxeticity) are not independent, being the latter a manifestation of the former. Basically, this is a feature of three-dimensional bodies.
