Laminates made of composite anisotropic layers have a large varieties of different possible elastic responses. Still remaining in the classical field of linear elasticity, it is possible to obtain, with laminates, elastic behaviors that are very strange and completely unusual not only for classical materials, like metallic alloys, but also for the same
