Abstract

Auxetic metamaterials display a negative Poisson’s ratio (NPR) that enables them to behave counterintuitively to the expected material response. While the commonly available materials contract laterally when stretched, auxetic metamaterials expand, and vice versa. Generally, the auxetic properties are attained by structuring a material with micro/macroscopic features. Auxetic metamaterials have numerous biomedical applications; inside the human body, they can be used as stents, disks for spine support, hip implants, bone plates, cardiac patches, and nasopharyngeal swabs. Furthermore, externally the auxetic materials can provide improved performance as shoe inserts and orthopedic braces. The ability to tune the unique properties of an auxetic material via controlling the structuring, and the similarity of their response to the human tissues has led to their increased implementation in biomedical simulation. Auxetic materials are being increasingly used as scaffolds in tissue engineering and in vitro medical devices. The advancement of fabrication techniques has enabled engineers and researchers to construct highly complicated designs which has increased the feasibility of auxetic materials as commercially available technology. Moreover, the advancement of the finite element method (FEM) and molecular dynamics simulations has decreased the resources required for designing auxetic materials due to the ability to quickly and accurately predict their response under various conditions. Auxetic materials being a relatively new field of research, the chapter will introduce the properties and the major designs of auxetic materials. Further, their fabrication techniques commonly used for biomedical engineering, will be discussed. Finally, the applications, particularly in the biomedical field, will be presented.
