The properties and applications of auxetics have been widely explored in the past years. Through proper utilization of auxetic structures, designs with unprecedented mechanical and structural behaviors can be produced. Taking advantage of this, we present the development of novel and low-cost 3D structures inspired by a simple auxetic unit. The core part, which we call the body in this paper, is a...
