Abstract

The unique characteristics of auxetic materials has attracted significant attention in the research domain. Its distinguishing negative Poisson’s ratio has found its way to targeted applications where normal materials fail to deliver the expected results. The manufacturing of macro sized auxetic structures has always been a challenge. This paper proposes the possibility for mass production of auxetic structures. Materials available in standard shapes are utilized to manufacture the auxetic structure. A new re-entrant cubic auxetic structure is developed, analysed and fabricated. This auxetic structure provides a better scope for mass production.
