Exploring the potential: auxetic metamaterials as core elements in buckling restrained braces [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering
Buckling restrained braces (BRBs) are now widely used in different seismic zones as lateral resisting systems due to their quasi-symmetric and stable cyclic behavior.

On the response of re-entrant auxetic structure under dynamic crushing

open access: yesMechanics & Industry, 2023
The present work focuses on the dynamic crushing response of 2D re-entrant auxetic honeycomb. The aim of this work is to propose analytic formulations to predict the crushing strength of the considered structure by including design parameters (specific ...

From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Auxeticity‐by‐Assembly: Interlocking Modular Auxetic Metamaterials with Selectively Activatable AgNW–Graphene Oxide‐EGaIn Composite Interconnects for Scalable Freeform Photovoltaic Modules

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Auxeticity‑by‑Assembly converts freeform photovoltaics from cut‑defined layouts to assembly‑defined systems. Standardized interlocking units generate negative‑Poisson‑ratio, reconfigurable architectures, while hinge regions are wired by selectively activatable AgNW–GO@EGaIn composite interconnects and a folding‑enabled interconnector layer. A decimeter‑

Auxetic Textiles

open access: yesActa Chimica Slovenica, 2014
Common materials have Poisson’s ratio values ranging from 0.0 to 0.5. Auxetic materials exhibit negative Poisson’s ratio. They expand laterally when stretched longitudinally and contract laterally when compressed.

The Dynamic Stability Problem of Composite Annular Plates with Auxetic Properties

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 2023
This paper presents the effect of the auxeticity on the behaviour of a plate subjected to the loss of stability. The plate structure is composed of three layers built of auxetic or conventional facings and a conventional core.

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 ...

Piezomorphic materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The development of stress-induced morphing materials which are described as piezomorphic materials is reported. The development of a piezomorphic material is achieved by introducing spatial dependency into the compliance matrix describing the elastic ...

Intelligent Acousto‐Electrical Metamaterials (IAM) for Sound Source Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Our proposed metamaterial concept enables sound source detection using a single material, in contrast to conventional arrays that require dozens or even hundreds of transducers. We show that the coupled acoustic–vibrational–electrical responses in piezoelectric metamaterials give rise to topology‐governed charge transport, producing distinct voltage ...

Compliant rolling-contact architected materials for shape reconfigurability. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Architected materials can achieve impressive shape-changing capabilities according to how their microarchitecture is engineered. Here we introduce an approach for dramatically advancing such capabilities by utilizing wrapped flexure straps to guide the ...
