Additive Fabrication of Anepectic Meshes
TL;DR: In this article, additive manufacturing is applied to fabricate bi-dimensional lightweight composite anepectic meshes capable of demonstrating auxetic properties (negative Poisson's ratio (NPR)) in combination with negative thermal expansion (NTE) behaviour, using as constituent materials polymers that do not exhibit NTE behaviour.

4D printing of mechanical metamaterials
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of 4D printing as applied to mechanical metamaterials and discuss the major challenges ahead for applying 4D printings to 3D shape morphing.
Dissertation
Non-Linear Finite Element Analysis of Sheets with Integrated Patterns - Identification of the Significant Mechanisms contributing to Non-Linear Behavior
TL;DR: This thesis sets out to analyze sources of non-linearity of flexure patterns, and finds their significance in design applications by performing a parametric study of the base repeating unit of two known patterns: the LET/Slits pattern and the YdX.

Self-bridging metamaterials surpassing the theoretical limit of Poisson’s ratios
TL;DR: In this article , self-bridging metamaterials are used to realize non-reciprocal Poisson's ratios, which can be used to achieve orthogonally bidirectional displacement amplification and expansion under tension and compression.
