This review presents the state of the art in strain and ripple-induced effects on the electronic
and optical properties of graphene. It starts by providing the crystallographic description of …

Auxetic materials (materials with negative Poisson's ratio) and nanomaterials have
independently been, for many years, two of the most active research fields in material …

The unique mechanical properties of auxetic materials are widely used in specialized fields,
such as medicine, defense security, and aerospace. Here, a potential two-dimensional (2D) …

With the aim of manipulating the mechanical properties of the recently discussed two-
dimensional material MXene, we investigate the effect of alloying. We consider substitutional …

We use molecular dynamics method to study the strengthening effect of graphene-metal
nanolayered composites under shock loading. The graphene interfaces have the …

Atomically thin crystals have recently been the focus of attention, in particular, after the
synthesis of graphene, a monolayer hexagonal crystal structure of carbon. In this novel …

This study develops an ordinary state-based peridynamic coarse-graining (OSPD-CG)
model for the investigation of fracture in single-layer graphene sheets (SLGS), in which the …

Interfaces that exist in composites greatly influence their mechanical and conductive
properties. There are usually three interface models to characterize the elastic and …

Enhancement of the structural elements' stiffness as well as reducing their weight can be
made possible by arranging nanocomposites in an auxetic form. Motivated by this reality …

We perform molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the effect of hydrogenation on the
Poisson's ratio of graphene. It is found that the value of the Poisson's ratio of graphene can …
