Development of novel auxetic structures based on braided composites

Auxetic materials are a class of materials that expand transversely when stretched longitudinally. Recently, auxetic materials are gaining special interest in the technical sectors mainly due to their attractive mechanical behavior. This paper reports, for the first time, the development of auxetic...
