In this paper we propose a new lattice structure having macroscopic Poisson's ratio arbitrarily close to the stability limit -1. We tested experimentally the effective Poisson's ratio of the micro-structured medium; the uniaxial test has…
Pentamode metamaterials are a type of extremal designer metamaterials which are able to demonstrate high rigidity in one direction and extremely high compliance in other directions. Pentamodes can, therefore, be considered as building…
We propose a class of auxetic three-dimensional lattice structures. The elastic microstructure can be designed in order to have omni-directional Poisson's ratio arbitrarily close to the stability limit -1. The cubic behavior of the periodic…
Elastic properties of the solid regions of neutron star crusts and white dwarfs play an important role in theories of stellar oscillations. Matter in compact stars is presumably polycrystalline and, since the elastic properties of single…
Maxwell lattices are characterized by an equal number of degrees of freedom and constraints. A subset of them, dubbed topological lattices, are capable of localizing stress and deformation on opposing edges, displaying a polarized…
This work studies the constitutive response of two- and three-dimensional lattice materials subject to isotropic prestress. The unit cell of the examined lattices is formed by an arbitrary number of junctions attached to a junction.…
Triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) shell lattices are attracting increasingly attention due to their unique combination of geometric and mechanical properties, and their open-cell topology. However, uniform thickness TPMS shell lattices…
This study presents innovative nested-isotropic lattices for additive manufacturing, drawing inspiration from bio-architectures found in cortical bone osteons, golden spirals, and fractals. These lattices provide tunable anisotropy by…
Hexagonal optical lattices offer a tunable platform to study exotic orbital physics in solid state materials. Here, we present a versatile high-precision scheme to implement a hexagonal optical lattice potential, which is engineered by…
This work presents a computational method for the design of architected truss lattice materials where each strut can be made of one of a set of available materials. We design the lattices to extremize effective properties. As customary in…
Two constructions of lattice packings of $ n $-dimensional cross-polytopes ($ \ell_1 $ balls) are described, the density of which exceeds that of any prior construction by a factor of at least $ 2^{\frac{n}{\ln n}(1 + o(1))} $ when $ n \to…
We present an analytical model to investigate the mechanics of 2-dimensional lattices composed of elastic beams of non-uniform cross-section. Our approach is based on reducing a lattice to a single beam subject to the action of a set of…
Current research on three-dimensional metamaterial has largely focused on conventional strut, plate, and shell-based lattice designs. Although these designs offer several advantages, they possess inherent limitations that can restrict their…
Interest in the elastic properties of regular lattices constructed from domain walls has recently been motivated by cosmological applications as solid dark energy. This work investigates the particularly simple examples of triangular,…
We propose a class of linear elastic three-dimensional metamaterials for which the effective parameters bulk modulus and mass density can be adjusted independently over a large range|which is not possible for ordinary materials. First, we…
The main result of this work is a homogenization theorem via variational convergence for elastic materials with stiff checkerboard-type heterogeneities under the assumptions of physical growth and non-self-interpenetration. While the…
Dilational materials are stable three-dimensional isotropic auxetics with an ultimate Poisson's ratio of -1. We design, evaluate, fabricate, and characterize crystalline metamaterials approaching this ideal. To reveal all modes, we…
Two classes of non-linear elastic materials are derived via two-dimensional homogenization. These materials are equivalent to a periodic grid of axially-deformable and axially-preloaded structural elements, subject to incremental…
A numerical study on the elastic response of single- and multi-layer systems formed by alternating pentamode lattices and stiffening plates is presented. Finite element simulations are conducted to analyze the dependence of the effective…
This study examines the mechanical behavior of a novel class of mechanical metamaterials alternating pentamode lattices and stiffening plates. The unit cell of such lattices consists of a sub-lattice of the face cubic-centered unit cell…
