Abstract Image-Based Simulation (IBSim) is the process by which a digital representation of
a real geometry is generated from image data for the purpose of performing a simulation …

Shape morphing and the possibility of having control over mechanical properties via
designed deformations have attracted a lot of attention in the materials community and led to …

Novel 3D printed square auxetic tubular lattice (SATL) structures were designed, fabricated
and investigated. Their mechanical properties were examined by the finite element method …

Auxetic metamaterials tend to be fabricated using additive manufacturing and laser cutting
due to their special porous microstructures. Although the auxetic metamaterials have many …

The effect of using multiple materials within hexagonal and re-entrant (auxetic) cellular
structures was investigated. For each topology, three different material configurations …

The incorporation of aluminum foam in auxetic tubes can significantly enhance the overall
stability, stiffness and energy absorption properties. In this work, a comparative study of the …

The auxetic lattice structures usually have excellent energy absorption characteristics since
their failed part can resist crushing loads continuously. However, their platform stress is …

Cellular structures (in general) and auxetic topologies (in particular) have excellent energy-
dissipation characteristics and can be used as lightweight impact-energy absorbers. This …

Negative stiffness (NS) metamaterials are kinds of artificial mechanical materials that exhibit
the negative stiffness effect governed by different mechanical mechanisms, among which …

The integrative potential of LPBF-printed parts for various innovative applications depends
upon the robustness and infallibility of the part quality. Eliminating or sufficiently reducing …
