Abstract
A series of re-entrant honeycombs (RH) with different off-axis angles and perturbation parameters are constructed and utilized to numerically explore the multiaxial yield behavior for 2D auxetic cellular materials. The off-axis angle significantly affects the anisotropic properties and Poisson's ratio of RH. The effects of microstructural irregularity on the multiaxial yield surfaces are also evaluated for all of the topologies. Simulation results under principal stress space, mean stress-effective stress space and normal stress-shear stress space reveal that the unique microstructure of auxetic cellular materials makes its mechanical properties significantly different from conventional cellular materials with positive Poisson's ratio. Furthermore, a pressure-dependent anisotropic phenomenological yield criterion is proposed for 2D auxetic cellular materials, which can effectively capture the multiaxial yield behavior of RH with different topologies in principal stress space. The present conclusions provide fresh insights into the microstructural design of auxetic cellular materials and pave the way for their future engineering applications.
