5 Motivation What is an auxetic? ν < 0 (Negtative Poisson s Ratio) is for mechanics what negative refractive index is for optics n < 0. Auxetics are metamaterials. Beneficial features from NPR Resistance to shape change and indentation; crack resistance; better vibration absorption (including acoustic one); synclastic curvature, different dynamics. Applications of NPR materials Medicine (stents, bandages, implants), defence (energy absorption), furniture industry (better mattresses indentation), automotive industry and sports (safety belts).

35 Conclusions Changing the anisotropy parameter (l x ) one can tune ν. ν can reach any negative value. For thin ribs the Timoshenko beam elements approximation gives satisfactory convergence. The disorder introduced by random RC radii has a negligible impact on ν. Anti chiral structures with rectangual symmetry are effective strain amplifiers with ν 1. Thiner ribs give lower ν but the effective structure s stiffness is also decreased. This work was supported by the (Polish) National Centre for Science under the grant NCN 2012/05/N/ST5/ Part of the simulations was performed at the Poznań Supercomputing and Networking Center (PCSS).
