Following high profile, life changing long term mental illnesses and fatalities in sports such
as skiing, cricket and American football—sports injuries feature regularly in national and …

Auxetic textiles are intriguing materials with unusual capabilities. These materials exhibit
negative Poisson's ratio with extraordinary performance in toughness, resilience, shear …

Life‐changing illnesses and fatalities caused by inefficient personal protective clothing and
equipment are increasing day by day. The discrepancy between the test standards …

Experimental study was performed to investigate fracture and impact properties of novel
Auxetic Kevlar® laminated composites. For comparison, standard Kevlar® woven …

An auxetic material is one which exhibits a negative Poisson's ratio; it expands laterally
when stretched longitudinally and contracts laterally when compressed longitudinally. The …

Honeycomb is considered an excellent structural material because of its high strength and
shear rigidity, excellent energy absorbing property, high impact strength, lower weight, high …

Auxetic fabrics have gained an increasing attention in the auxetic material area in recent
years. Especially, auxetic fabrics fabricated based on both weft‐knitted and warp‐knitted …

Auxetic composites are those that have a negative Poisson's ratio. Compared with
conventional composites, auxetic composites possess some advantages such as higher …

Auxetic plied yarns are specially constructed with two types of single yarns of different sizes
and moduli. This paper investigates how to use these types of yarns to produce woven …

There are now different kinds of geometrical models for auxetic materials, such as re-entrant
model, rotating model, nodule and fibril model, chiral model, liquid crystalline model, helical …
