Harnessing distinct deformation modes of auxetic patterns for stiffness design of tubular structures
Auxetic materials with a negative Poisson's ratio show a unique lateral expansion under tension while their deformation under shear is similar to that of normal materials. Here, we present a novel method to design the stiffness of tubular structures by exploiting these load-dependent distinct d...
