| Abstract: | Materials with a negative Poisson’s ratio, also known as auxetic materials, exhibit the unusual property of expanding laterally when stretched and contracting laterally when compressed, a property which is attributed to the correct interplay of the geometry and the deformation mechanism of the system. |
