Abstract Mechanical Metamaterials (MMs) are artificially designed structures with
extraordinary properties that are dependent on micro architectures and spatial tessellations …

The natural design and coupling of biological structures are the root of realizing the high
strength, toughness, and unique functional properties of biomaterials. Advanced architecture …

Auxetic metamaterials with excellent mechanical properties have attracted considerable
attention for use in various applications, especially for energy-absorption. In this work, novel …

Auxetic materials and structures have been attracting attention due to their extraordinary
mechanical properties that stand out due to their high capacity to absorb energy. Some …

Recently, auxetic honeycombs have attracted widespread attention with characteristics of
lightweight, excellent energy absorption capacity and high shear stiffness. The present …

This paper investigated the dynamic crushing of a novel periodic origami-inspired cellular
structure. The large-scale multi-layer metallic specimens considered geometry, anisotropy …

In this work, a double tubular structure consisting of auxetic tubular structures and aluminum
foam was proposed. The mechanical properties of the aluminum foam-filled auxetic tubular …

The expansion of conventional prosthetic skin grafts has been quantified to be very low and
insufficient for treating large and severe burn injuries with small amounts of available donor …

Mechanical metamaterials with two-phase lattice structures have recently been explored to
enhance the mechanical properties of the constituent lattices. In this work, novel dual-phase …

Cellular metamaterials are man-made structures that have unusual mechanical properties.
