Effect of Chiral Arm Angle on the Stiffness, Auxeticity and Energy Absorption of Polyamide-12 Tetra-Chiral Lattices Under Quasi-Static Compression: A Numerical Baseline Study

Chiral auxetic lattices convert axial loading into node rotation, producing negative Poisson’s ratios and high energy absorption. This purely numerical study establishes a quasi-static baseline for additively manufacturable polyamide-12 (PA12) tetra-chiral lattices in which the c...
