Auxetic material is a material which has negative Poisson's ratio(NPR). Auxetic material shows some distinctive property like high energy absorbing property and high shear modulus. Among these, synclastic curvature is very interesting characteristic. When synclastic-curvature-material bends, it changes its shape like dome, contrary to non-auxetic material which changes its shape like saddle(anticlastic). This distinctive property could make it easy to manufacture curved structure like nose cone or wing panel in aerospace engineering. In this study, we studied a quantitative analysis about synclastic curvature of re-entrant panel with finite element model. We suggested a concept 'Degree of Synclasticity(DOS)', which means a ratio of curvature of load-direction and load-orthogonal direction. We studied the variation of DOS with two factor, unit cell inner angle(${\theta}$) and load position angle(${\phi}$). DOS decreases as ${\theta}$ increases because the unit cell goes out of auxetic-shape. As ${\phi}$ varies, DOS changes in a large range. So proper optimization of ${\phi}$ would be needed for application.

Due to the unique characteristic of auxetic material, negative poisson's ratio, it has a variety of distinctive properties compared to conventional materials. Numerous researches have been conducted on the auxetic material in order to find out how to make auxetics. In this study, we analyzed triangular and rectangular patterned rotating rigid units using finite element method. Our purpose is to investigate the mechanical properties of the rotating rigid units and to show their auxetic behaviors. We studied the Poisson's ratio and the bulk modulus of the rotating rigid units depending on their unit cell sizes. The Poisson's ratio and the bulk modulus decreased as the number of unit cells increased. Also, when the geometry of the unit cell was changed, the tendency of the Poisson's ratio and the bulk modulus was also different from the previous case. The results of the Poisson's ratio and the bulk modulus referred that they were critically affected by the number of unit cells and the shape of unit cell.

This study investigates the viability of using a Na-ion battery with a tin(Sn) anode to mitigate the vulnerability caused by volume changes during discharge and charge cycling. In general, the volume changes of carbon material do not cause any instability during intercalation into its layer structure. Sn has a high theoretical capacity of $847mAh\;g^{-1}$. However, it expands dramatically in the discharge process by alloying Na-Sn, placing the electrode under massive internal stress, and particularly straining the binder over the elastic limit. The repeating strain results in loss of active material and its electric contact, as well as capacity decrease. This paper expands the scope of fabrication of Na-ion batteries with Sn by fabricating the binder as an auxetic structure with a unique feature: a negative Poisson ratio (NPR), which increases the resistance to internal stress in the Na-Sn alloying/de-alloying processes. Electrochemical tests and micrograph images of auxetic and common binders are used to compare dimensional and structural differences. Results show that the capacity of an auxetic-structured Sn electrode is much larger than that of a Sn electrode with a common-structured binder. Furthermore, using an auxetic structured Sn electrode, stability in discharge and charge cycling is obtained.

An airless tire has advantages over the conventional pneumatic tire in terms of flat proof and maintenance free. According to the recently disclosed inventions on the airless tire, non-pneumatic tire (NPT) consists of the flexible polygon spokes. Considering the NPT structure, the spokes undergo the tension-compression cyclic loading while the tire rolls. Therefore the spokes of NPT are required to have both stiffness and resilience under the cyclic tensile-compressible loading. In general, if a material has a high stiffness, it shows a low elastic strain limit. In this paper, using the auxetic honeycomb structure with negative poissons's ratio, the spokes of NPT tire are designed to have both stiffness and resilience. Finite element based numerical simulation of the contact pressure of a NPT is carried out with ABAQUS.

푸아송비(poisson's ratio)는 종방향 변형률에 대한 횡방향 변형률의 비로, 우리 주위 대부분의 재료들은 양의 푸아송비를 지닌다. 그러나 재료가 특정한 격자구조를 이루도록 설계할 경우 구성물질이 양의 푸아송비를 가지더라도 거시적으로는 음의 푸아송비를 구현할 수 있으며, 이러한 극한물성물질(metamaterial)을 오그제틱 물질(auxetic material)이라고 부른다. 이전까지 오그제틱 물질을 구현하기 위한 많은 메커니즘들이 개발되고 역학적, 수치적으로 해석되어 왔다. 이 논문에서는 가장 대표적인 오그제틱 구조인 리엔트런트(re-entrant) 오그제틱 구조를 빔 구조물로 모델링하여 유한요소해석을 수행하고 주요 설계 변수인 리엔트런트 각에 따라서 푸아송비와 유효 탄성계수가 어떻게 변화하는지 확인하였다.

Nonlinear forced vibration properties of three-layered plates containing graphene platelets (GPL) filled skins and an auxetic core have been inquired within the present paper. Owning reduced weight as well as reduced stiffness, rectangle-shaped auxetic cores have been frequently made from novel techniques such as additive manufacturing. Here, the rectangle shape core is amplified via the graphene-filled layers knowing that the layers possess uniform and linear graphene gradations. The rectangle shape core has the equivalent material specifications pursuant to relative density value. The sandwich plate is formulated pursuant to Kirchhoff plate theory while a numerical trend has been represented to discretize the plate equations. Next, an analytical trend has been performed to establish the deflection-frequency plots. Large deflections, core density and GPL amplification have showed remarkable impacts on dynamic response of three-layered plates.

Using negative Poisson's ratio materials, an innovative metallic-yielding damper is introduced for the first time in this study. Through the use of ABAQUS commercial software, a nonlinear finite element analysis is conducted to determine the performance of the proposed system. Mild steel plates with elliptical holes are used for these types of dampers, which dissipate energy through an inelastic deformation of the constitutive material. To assess the capability of the proposed damper, nonlinear quasi-static finite element analyses have been conducted on the damper with a variety of geometric parameters. According to the results, the proposed system is ductile and has a high capacity to dissipate energy. The proposed auxetic damper has a specific energy absorption of 910.8 J/kg and a ductility of 33.6. Therefore, this damper can dissipate a large amount of earthquake input energy without buckling by increasing the buckling load of the brace with its ductile behavior. In addition, it was found that by incorporating auxetic dampers in the steel frame, the frame was made harder, stronger, and ductile and its energy absorption increased by 300%.

This paper examines the thermal post-buckling behaviors of graphene-reinforced metal matrix composite (GRMMC) laminated cylindrical panels which possess in-plane negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) and rest on an elastic foundation. A panel consists of GRMMC layers of piece-wise varying graphene volume fractions to obtain functionally graded (FG) patterns. Based on the MD simulation results, the GRMMCs exhibit in-plane NPR as well as temperature-dependent material properties. The governing equations for the thermal post-buckling of panels are based on the Reddy's third order shear deformation shell theory. The von Karman nonlinear strain-displacement relationship and the elastic foundation are also included. The nonlinear partial differential equations for GRMMC laminated cylindrical panels are solved by means of a singular perturbation technique in associate with a two-step perturbation approach and in the solution process the boundary layer effect is considered. The results of numerical investigations reveal that the thermal post-buckling strength for (0/90)_5T GRMMC laminated cylindrical panels can be enhanced with an FG-X pattern. The thermal post-buckling load-deflection curve of 6-layer (0/90/0)_S and (0/90)_3T panels of FG-X pattern are higher than those of 10-layer (0/90/0/90/0)_S and (0/90)_5T panels of FG-X pattern.
