Abstract
This chapter provides a detail presentation on the fibre-reinforced composites with negative Poisson’s ratio. The advantages of using auxetic fibres and yarns as composite reinforcements are first introduced. Then, two types of fibre-reinforced composites, including auxetic laminates and 3D auxetic textile composites are presented in detail. The mechanical properties, auxetic performance, geometrical and finite element analyses of typical auxetic fibre–reinforced composites are discussed as well.
