Auxetic foams have previously been shown to benefits including higher indentation resistance than their conventional counterparts, due negative Poisson’s ratio, making them better at resisting penetration by concentrated loads. The ratio and Young’s modulus of auxetic open cell rarely measured the high compressive strain rates typical during impacts energy absorbing material in sporting protect...

There are some materials in nature that experience deformations not elastic. Viscoelastic of them. We come across many such our daily lives through a number interesting applications engineering, material science and medicine. This article concerns itself with modelling the nonlinear response class viscoelastic solids. In particular, viscoelasticity strain rate type, which can be described by co...
