Analysis of Antichiral Thermomechanical Metamaterials with Continuous Negative Thermal Expansion Properties

Negative thermal expansion is an interesting and appealing phenomenon for various scientific and engineering applications, while rarely occurring in natural materials. Here, using a universal antichiral metamaterial model with bimetal beams or strips, a generic theory has been developed to predict m...
