Finite Element Analysis of Tunable Composite Tubes Reinforced with Auxetic Structures
A tubular composite structure that is built of two materials, characterized by different Young moduli, is analysed in this paper. The Young’s modulus of one of these materials can be controlled by external conditions e.g., magnetic or electric field, temperature etc. The geometry of the reinforcemen...
