Most materials exhibit positive Poissons ratio (PR) values but special structures can also present negative and, even rarer, zero (or close to zero) PR. Null PR structures have received much attention due to their unusual properties and potential applications in different fields, such as aeronautics and bio-engineering. Here, we present a new and simple near-zero PR 2D topological model based on a structural block composed of two smooth and rigid bars connected by a soft membrane or spring. It is not based on re-entrant or honeycomb-like configurations, which have been the basis of many null or quasi-null PR models. Our topological model was 3D printed and the experimentally obtained PR was$-0.003,pm 0.001,$, which is one the closest to zero value ever reported. This topological model can be easily extended to 3D systems and with compression in any direction. The advantages and disadvantages of these models are also addressed.
We present first-principles calculations of elastic properties of multilayered two-dimensional crystals such as graphene, h-BN and 2H-MoS2 which shows that their Poissons ratios along out-of-plane direction are negative, near zero and positive, respe
We study the elastic response of composites of rods embedded in elastic media. We calculate the micro-mechanical response functions, and bulk elastic constants as functions of rod density. We find two fixed points for Poissons ratio with respect to t
Negative Poissons ratio (NPR) materials have attracted tremendous interest due to their unusual physical properties and potential applications. Certain two-dimensional (2D) monolayer materials have also been found to exhibit NPR and the corresponding
As a basic mechanical parameter, Poissons ratio ({ u}) measures the mechanical responses of solids against external loads. In rare cases, materials have a negative Poissons ratio (NPR), and present an interesting auxetic effect. That is, when a mater
Silicon dioxide or silica, normally existing in various bulk crystalline and amorphous forms, is recently found to possess a two-dimensional structure. In this work, we use ab initio calculation and evolutionary algorithm to unveil three new 2D silic
