Abstract

The high mechanical properties of auxetic materials with negative Poisson’s ratio make them suitable for a variety of applications. This article investigated how the auxetic layer affects wave propagation and its effective characteristics in cylindrical sandwich shells. An analytical solution is established to describe wave propagation through wave frequency and wave velocity according to first-order shear deformable shell theory. Moreover, the Hamilton principle was applied. Then, the governing equation was solved by utilizing an analytical method. Different parameters such as auxetic cell angle inclined and dimensions on wave behavior were investigated. The final step is to conduct a numerical investigation. The results are reported in the form of several figures and analyze how each parameter influences wave propagation.
