Auxetics are a unique class of innovative materials/structures. Auxetic material/structures possess a negative value of Poisson’s ratio owing to the distinguished deformation behavior represented by the transvers expansion or contraction when they experience uniaxial stretching or compression, respectively. The aim of this manuscript is to show contributions of the structural modification on an auxetic hybrid structure. The in-plane properties of an auxetic structure, called the modified re-entrant chiral auxetic (MRCA) structure under quasi-static compression were experimentally and numerically explored. The experimental specimens were 3D printed using fused deposition modeling technique. The commercial ABAQUS/Explicit solver was used to develop the simulated models. Results showed that the structural modification have led to effectively improve deformation coordination (i.e. uniform deformation patterns) and the compressive properties of the modified structure. Young’s moduli were 1.75 and 12.7 higher than those of the original geometry, while values of plateau stress were 3.1 and 1.23 higher than those of the original geometry when they were compressed along the X and Y axes, respectively. The specific energy absorptions per unit mass were 4.7 J g−1 and 3.9 J g−1 when the MRCA specimens were compressed along the X and Y axes, respectively. However, the added cylinders limited the auxeticity (i.e. the transvers contraction) of the specimens during the compression tests. |
