Abstract

In this paper, the dynamic behavior of auxetic materials are interpreted in the light of Cosserat elasticity which admits degrees of freedom not present in classical elasticity: the rotation of points in the material, and a couple per unit area or the couple stress. The prediction of the Young’modulus is developed for a composite made up from aluminum and an auxetic material.
