Properties of a chiral honeycomb with a Poisson's ratio -1
نویسنده
چکیده
A theoretical and experimental investigation is conducted of a two-dimensionally chiral honeycomb. The honeycomb exhibits a Poisson's ratio of -1 for deformations in-plane. This Poisson's ratio is maintained over a significant range of strain, in contrast to the variation with strain seen in known negative Poisson's ratio materials.

Negative Poisson's ratio in 2D Voronoi cellular solids by biaxial compression: a numerical study
A 2D (two dimensional) random cellular solid model was built using FEM(finite element method) based on a modified Voronoi tessellation technique. A sequence of permanent biaxial compression deformations was applied on the model to obtain a series of re-entrant random cellular solid structures with different area compression ratios. The Poisson's ratio and energy absorption capacity of cellular ...
متن کاملAN IMPROVEMENT TO PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF HEAVY-WEIGHT OIL WELL CEMENTS USING CARBON NANOTUBES
This study experimentally investigates the effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT’s), as a reinforcing material, on the physical properties of heavy-weight oil well cements. A candidate well is selected and the properties of the cement slurry used in a problematic section of the well are tested in the laboratory. Carbon nanotubes (CNT’s) are added as fibers to the cement slurry and the i...
متن کاملOn the Mechanical Properties of Chiral Carbon Nanotubes
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are specific structures with valuable characteristics. In general, the structure of each nanotube is defined by a unique chiral vector. In this paper, different structures of short single-walled CNTs are simulated and their mechanical properties are determined using finite element method. For this aim, a simple algorithm is presented which is able to model the geometry o...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of Size and Structure Effect on Tensile Characteristics of Symmetric and Asymmetric CNTs
In this research, the influence of structure on the tensile properties of single- walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is evaluated using molecular mechanics technique and finite element method. The effects of diameter, length and chiral angle on elastic modulus and Poisson’s ratio of armchair, zigzag and chiral structures are investigated. To simulate the CNTs, a 3D FEM code is developed using the A...
متن کاملNumerical and Experimental Analysis of the Static Compliance of Chiral Truss-core Airfoils
This paper presents an innovative wing profile featuring an internal truss-like structure of chiral topol-ogy. The chiral design is selected because of its unique deformation characteristics, which produce a theoretical, in-plane Poisson's ratio of −1. Such a Poisson's ratio yields a very high shear modulus, which in principle does not require the wing profile to be defined by a closed section ...
