The rise of mechanical metamaterials: Auxetic constructs for skin wound healing
Auxetic materials are known for their unique ability to expand/contract in multiple directions when stretched/compressed. In other words, they exhibit a negative Poisson’s ratio, which is usually positive for most of materials. This behavior appears in some biological tissues such as human skin, whe...
