From Geometric Transformations to Auxetic Metamaterials
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper introduces a new alternative towards fabrication of auxetic metamaterials (materials with negative Poisson’s ratio) controlled by geometric transformations. These transformations are derived from the theory of small (infinitesimal) elastic deformation superimposed on finite elastic deformations. By using this theory, a cylindrical region filled with initial deformed foam is transformed through deformation into a cylindrical shell region filled with auxetic metamaterial. As an example, the realization of the seismic cloak device becomes a practical possibility.

Tuning the Performance of Metallic Auxetic Metamaterials by Using Buckling and Plasticity
Metallic auxetic metamaterials are of great potential to be used in many applications because of their superior mechanical performance to elastomer-based auxetic materials. Due to the limited knowledge on this new type of materials under large plastic deformation, the implementation of such materials in practical applications remains elusive. In contrast to the elastomer-based metamaterials, me...
متن کاملA versatile smart transformation optics device with auxetic elasto-electromagnetic metamaterials
Synergistic integration of electromagnetic (EM) and mechanical properties of metamaterials, a concept known as smart metamaterials, promises new applications across the spectrum, from flexible waveguides to shape-conforming cloaks. These applications became possible thanks to smart transformation optics (STO), a design methodology that utilizes coordinate transformations to control both EM wave...

A IO N When materials are uniaxially compressed, they typically expand in directions orthogonal to the applied load. Here, we exploit buckling to design a new class of three dimensional metamaterials with negative Poisson's ratio that contract in the transverse direction under compressive loading regimes. These proposed metamaterials consist of an array of patterned elastomeric spherical shells...

Buckling is exploited to design a new class of three-dimensional metamaterials with negative Poisson's ratio. A library of auxetic building blocks is identified and procedures are defined to guide their selection and assembly. The auxetic properties of these materials are demonstrated both through experiments and finite element simulations and exhibit excellent qualitative and quantitative agre...
متن کاملOrigami-inspired deployable auxetic metamaterials
Developing complex spatial objects from a fl at sheet of material using origami folding techniques has long attractedattention in science and engineering. Recent research has shown that in origami-based deployable folded sheetmaterials, such as Miura-ori, metamaterial properties of the patterns are basically because of their folding geom-etry [1, 2]. In this study, we employ tai...
