Auxetic materials
From Design Computation
Revision as of 16:57, 24 August 2017 by Abel Maciel (talk | contribs)
Materials that become thicker when stretched and thinner when compressed. The theory behind the counterintuitive behavior of these so-called auxetic materials is discussed, and examples and applications are examined. For example, blood vessels made from an auxetic material will tend to increase in wall thickness (rather than decrease) in response to a pulse of blood, thus preventing rupture of the vessel.
