Enhanced vibration damping materials and structures for wind turbine blades inspired from auxetic configurations

An extensive analysis of the current applications and possible employments of auxetic materials and configurations is presented. These novel materials show a negative Poisson's ratio and, potentially, enhanced mechanical properties. Despite a substantial amount of publications can be found in l...
