Abstract

In contrast to traditional materials, materials and structures with negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) transverse shrinkage (expansion) occurs under uniaxial pressure (tension). This characteristic makes NPR materials have many excellent advantages.  Shear capacity and indentation resistance of NPR materials are introduced in this paper. According to these two characteristics, the paper also introduces the defence application of NPR materials.
