Abstract

Auxetic materials are solids that possess negative Poisson’s ratio. This chapter introduces the reader to the definition of Poisson’s ratio and its historical development. Thereafter the definition and historical development of auxetic materials are given. Both naturally occurring as well as man-made auxetic materials are introduced—the former in terms of α-cristobalite and the latter in terms of foams and yarns.
