Characterization of auxetic and mechanical behaviours of auxetic composites developed using star knitted structures

This work evaluates the auxetic behaviour of composite materials produced from weft-knitted fabrics made from high-tenacity para-aramid (p-AR) and polyamide 6.6 (PA) fibres, which have proven to present negative Poisson’s ratios (NPR). Composites were produced by reinforcing an epoxy resin with thos...
