Auxetic Composite Laminates with Through-Thickness Negative Poisson’s Ratio for Mitigating Low Velocity Impact Damage: A Numerical Study
Auxetic materials are those that exhibit negative Poisson’s ratios. Such a unique property was shown to improve the indentation and impact resistances. Angle-ply composite laminates can be designed to produce negative Poisson’s ratio at the laminate level due to the large anisotropicity of the indiv...
