Mohammadi, Kaivan (author), Shafia, Moein (author), Akbari, Javad (author), Hedayati, R. (author)Pentamodes (first conceived theoretically by Milton and Cherkaev) are a very interesting class of mechanical metamaterials that can be used as building blocks of structures withdecoupled bulk and shear moduli. The pentamodes usually are composed of double cone-shaped struts with the middle diameter being large and the end diameters being tiny...journal article 2024

Hedayati, R. (author), Yousefi, Armin (author), Dezaki, Mohammadreza Lalegani (author), Bodaghi, Mahdi (author)Both 2D and 3D re-entrant designs are among the well-known prevalent auxetic structures exhibiting negative Poisson's ratio. The present study introduces novel analytical relationships for 2D re-entrant hexagonal honeycombs for both negative and positive ranges of the cell interior angle θ (θ<0 showing a negative Poisson's ratio). The...journal article 2023

Amin, Shashank (author)Kirigami- the Japanese art of paper cutting – is used extensively as a design philosophy for stretchable and morphable structures. An array of cuts on a thin planar sheet creates a structure that can morph into a 3D pattern on applying an in-plane uniaxial load. This type of structure is called a kirigami metasurface. A subset of this type of...master thesis 2022
