Mechanical Metamaterials Foams with Tunable Negative Poisson’s Ratio for Enhanced Energy Absorption and Damage Resistance

Systematic and deep understanding of mechanical properties of the negative Poisson’s ratio convex-concave foams plays a very important role for their practical engineering applications. However, in the open literature, only a negative Poisson’s ratio effect of the metamaterials c...
