Longitudinal and shear waves propagation in a periodic foundation with negative Poisson's ratio

The introduction of negative Poisson's ratio materials in engineering has opened new possibilities in materials science, acoustics, and civil engineering. Isotropic elastic foam with a negative Poisson's ratio of -0.7 has been produced which expands laterally when stretched, in contrast to...
