Auxetics are materials, metamaterials or structures which expand laterally in at least one cross-sectional plane when uniaxially stretched, that is, have a negative Poisson’s ratio. Over these last decades, these systems have been studied through v

Prototyping of three-dimensional mechanical metamaterials that exhibit negative Poisson’s ratio is usually performed through additive manufacturing. Although this technique has a huge potential, its use to engineer mechanical metamaterials for cons

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials and structures exhibit the anomalous property of shrinking rather than expanding when heated. This work examines the potential of multi-material planar re-entrant and non-re-entrant honeycombs to exhibit ano

Background and Objectives: Rowing is a sport that involves constant gripping, pulling/pushing, and rotational movements of the hands, in a cyclic periodic manner with every stroke, with hundreds of strokes being taken within a short period of time. D

In this work, through the use of a theoretical model, we analyse the potential of a specific three-dimensional mechanical metamaterial composed of arrowhead-like structural units to exhibit a negative Poisson’s ratio for an arbitrary loading direct

Auxetics (negative Poisson’s ratio) and materials with negative linear compressibility (NLC) exhibit the anomalous mechanical properties of getting wider rather than thinner when stretched and expanding in at least one direction under hydrostatic p

Auxetic structures and materials expand laterally when stretched. It has been argued that this property could be applied in the design of smart filters with tunable sieving properties. This work analyses the filtration properties of a class of auxeti

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 molecular modelling package which incorporates the ‘core-shell’ model for sim

This study considers a 3D basic unit-cell proposed for auxetic and non-auxetic foams namely the elongated hexagonal dodecahedron deforming through changes in angle between its ligaments (idealised hinging model). This structure was studied in detail

‘Negative mechanical materials / metamaterials’ refer to materials and/or engineered systems that exhibit anomalous macroscopic thermo-mechanical properties that emerge due to the structure of their subunits, rather than the specific chemical com
