In this work the systems composed of particles interacting with hard potential are investigated. These systems feature certain modifications to the crystal structure – selected particles are replaced with ones that differ slightly in their diameters. Such modifications, which can be thought of ...

Auxetic materials, i.e. materials exhibiting negative Poisson’s ratio, stand to answer the demand for novel materials with unique and application-tailored properties. The vast range of potential applications motivates researchers to search for new materials with such properties, or to look for ...

The influence of periodically distributed inclusions on elastic properties of crystals in which particles interact through Yukawa potential is discussed briefly. The inclusions in the form of channels oriented along the [001]-direction and layers orthogonal to the [010]-direction are considered. ...

The Poisson’s ratio behaviour of cellular systems which change their internal features when subjected to pressure change to become a “re-entrant” or “non-re-entrant” honeycomb was investigated. It was shown, through finite elements simulations, that these changes in geometry permit the ...

The Poisson’s ratio of anisotropic materials depends, in general, both on a “longitudinal” direction along which the stress is changed and on a “transverse” direction in which the transverse deformation is measured. For cubic media there exist “longitudinal” directions, parallel to ...
