Free-form optimization of pattern shape for improving mechanical characteristics of a concentric tube
Medical concentric tubes have recently been designed using auxetic structures with negative Poisson's ratios to reduce undesirable snapping instability and improve mechanical performance. Despite the vast range of stiffness levels, prior auxetic designs were restricted to relatively simple geom...
