Abstract

This chapter evaluates the extent of moduli increase, especially beyond the simple rule-of-mixture mode, for composites consisting of positive and negative Poisson’s ratio phases. Specific topics include fiber composites, laminates, and particle composites. The refined moduli models include correction terms or functions to cater for the increased stiffness.
