Abstract
This work studies a three-dimensional anticircular-curve transversal-isotropic auxetic structure (3D-ATAS) with tunable Poisson’s ratio (υ) and tunable Young’s modulus (E) on the basis of hexagonal symmetry in the transverse plane using the anti-deformation method by the design of inclined rods as circular-curve rods in the opposite direction of the deformation (under compressive loading). By using the energy method, expressions of υ and E of 3D-ATAS are acquired, and based on the periodic boundary conditions, υ and E of 3D-ATAS are parametrically researched through numerical simulation and uniaxial compression experiments. The effects of anticircular-curve rod thickness t, anticircular-curve rod width b, and anticircular-curve cross-section angle θ to υ and E of 3D-ATAS are investigated. The tunable ranges of υ and E of 3D-ATAS are predicted, and the wide range of E is attained. Compared with the 3D circular-curve transversal-isotropic auxetic structure, E of 3D-ATAS is significantly enhanced in different directions, and the maximum enhanced up to 10 times. In the same way, both υ and E of 3D-ATAS are transversal-isotropic.
期刊介绍:
The past few decades have seen outstanding advances in the use of composite materials in structural applications. There can be little doubt that, within engineering circles, composites have revolutionised traditional design concepts and made possible an unparalleled range of new and exciting possibilities as viable materials for construction. Composite Structures, an International Journal, disseminates knowledge between users, manufacturers, designers and researchers involved in structures or structural components manufactured using composite materials.
The journal publishes papers which contribute to knowledge in the use of composite materials in engineering structures. Papers deal with design, research and development studies, experimental investigations, theoretical analysis and fabrication techniques relevant to the application of composites in load-bearing components for assemblies, ranging from individual components such as plates and shells to complete composite structures.
