30 1. Introduction
31 Conventional engineering materials contract when they are subjected to uniaxial tension and expand laterally when
32 they are compressed. As one of the most studied branches of mechanical metamaterials, auxetic materials exhibit a
33 counterintuitive deformation behavior [1-4], as shown in Figure 1. The materials with negative Poisson’s ratio, also named
34 as ‘auxetics’ by Evans et al. [5], have superior properties in the aspects of indentation resistance [6,7], shear resistance [8],
35 fracture resistance [9], surface homogeneity [10], permeability variability [11] and energy absorption performance [12].
36 So far, the preliminary applications of auxetic materials have extended to many fields such as artificial prosthesis [13],
37 textile materials, intelligent sensors [14-16], intelligent filters [11,17], protective pads [18], shock absorbers [19] and sound
38 isolators [20]. Huang et al. [21] proposed a novel type of 2D Seismic metamaterial composed of auxetic foam and steel to
39 attenuate seismic waves at ultra-low frequencies. Huang et al. [22] introduced auxetic structures into carbon nanotube-
40 reinforced composite (CNTRC) laminate. Ren et al. [23-25] proposed a new method to design three-dimensional auxetic
41 structures and combined this three-dimensional metal metamaterial with the tubular structure using 3D printing technology
1
1 to prepare metal auxetic tubes. The tubular structure shows obvious auxetic effect under compression and tension. Ren et
2 al. [26] designed auxetic nails by utilizing the concept of tubular structure. Zhang et al. [27] proposed a novel type of
3 tubular structure which is the first tubular structure with auxeticity in the wall thickness as well as in the radial direction.
4 Its closed surfaces of tube wall could broaden the applications of tubular structures in the fields of civil engineering and
5 mechanical engineering. Zhang et al. [28] designed a novel perforated negative Poisson’s ratio core buckling-restrained
6 brace (NP-BRB) for exploring the hysteretic performance of auxetic metamaterials under cyclic load.

1 the hollow re-entrant honeycomb, the foam-filled honeycomb has a higher specific energy absorption (SEA) capability
2 due to a higher plateau stress. Zhou et al. [46] filled the auxetic structure with foamed concrete of different densities to
3 obtain the auxetic filled structure. The experimental results show that the energy absorption characteristics of the structure
4 are related to the density of the foamed concrete fillings. As the density of filling material increases, the structure could
5 absorb more energy. Madke et al. [47] investigated the effectiveness of sandwich structure with auxetic 3D re-entrant
6 lattice core and semi-auxetic braided composite face sheets subjected to high-velocity impact.
7 At present, most re-entrant honeycomb composites are consisting of metals and conventional polymer foam. However,
8 these composites would be permanently damaged during compression and their auxetic effect is weak. Slow recovery foam
9 is a superior buffer material which has strong energy absorption capacity and high-volume compressibility. With the
10 enhancement of loading rates, the energy absorption capacity could increase. Slow recovery foam could be used repeatedly
11 without permanent deformation, resulting in a wide application in the fields of aerospace [48,49], vehicle engineering,
12 biomedicine and etc. However, to the best knowledge of authors, the studies related to the composites of filling re-entrant
13 honeycombs with slow recovery foam are rarely reported. Besides the effect of strain rates on Poisson’s ratio in re-entrant
14 composites is rarely investigated.
15 In this paper, to improve the mechanical properties of re-entrant honeycombs, slow recovery foam-filled re-entrant
16 honeycombs (SR) were designed and fabricated. Compression experiments at different strain rates of slow recovery foam-
17 filled re-entrant honeycombs were carried out to investigate to its stress-strain relationships, energy absorption capacity
18 and Poisson’s ratios. Besides, validated numerical models were employed to further investigate the performance of the
19 composites. In the parametric study, the effects of dimensional parameters on the energy absorption capacity and Poisson’s
20 ratios were discussed.

9 Figure 14 illustrates the deformation patterns of the slow recovery foam-filled honeycombs under quasi-static
10 compression. When the strain reaches 0.11, the foam in the hexagonal unit cell begins to separate from the inclined struts
11 of the voids. Some gap appears between the foam and the inclined struts. Unlike the hollow hexagonal honeycomb, the
12 deformation of unit cells in each layer of SH is uniform in the process of compression. When the strain reaches 0.21, the
13 middle part of SR begins to shrink inwards. No lateral buckling of the structure occurs and it appears to be an X-shaped
14 deformation pattern. In the process of compression, SR exhibits remarkable auxetic effect. And the auxetic effect gradually
15 diminishes with increasing compression strain. Figure 15 shows the deformation of fast recovery foam-filled honeycombs.
16 It is similar to the deformation pattern of slow recovery foam-filled honeycombs. However, the mechanical properties of
17 the two types of foam are different.
18 No damage was occurred for the hollow honeycombs and the foam-filled honeycombs, due to foam and TPU are both
19 hyper-elastic materials. Filling foam offers the honeycombs supporting forces in all directions, thus changing the
20 deformation mode of the structures. Due to the low Young’s modulus of TPU, the re-entrant honeycomb lacks lateral
21 stiffness. While the structure is under compression, lateral buckling occurs very quickly. Filled foam could effectively
22 enhance the stiffness of the pure re-entrant honeycomb structures.

13 Figure 16 shows the stress-strain curves of the specimens under quasi-static compression. It observed that the foam-
14 filled honeycombs go through the elastic stage, the platform stage and the densification stage. During the elastic stage, the
15 force increases linearly with the increasing of displacement, the curve’s slope of foam-filled re-entrant honeycombs is
16 higher than that of the hexagonal honeycombs. Compared with the foam-filled hexagonal honeycombs, the re-entrant
17 honeycombs enter the platform stage earlier. During the plateau stage, the platform stress of the foam-filled re-entrant
18 honeycombs is higher than that of the foam-filled hexagonal honeycombs. Due to the deformation patterns of the foam-
19 filled re-entrant honeycombs, the structure exhibits greater bearing capacity than the foam-filled hexagonal honeycombs.
20 In the process of compression, the re-entrant composites have remarkable auxetic effect, which gathers the foam inward
21 and accelerated the densification of the structures.
22 The calculated equivalent Poisson’s ratio for two types of foam-filled re-entrant honeycombs and the empty re-entrant
23 honeycomb is presented in Figure 17. As can be seen from Figure 17, the trend of Poisson’s ratio curves of the foam-filled
24 re-entrant honeycombs is consistent. With the increase of strain, the curves tend to be smooth, indicating that the auxetic
25 effect weakened gradually. However, the empty re-entrant honeycomb has obvious auxetic effect before the strain reaches
26 0.1. Then the auxetic effect weakened soon.

9 Ingrole et al [52] indicated that re-entrant honeycombs can absorb 27% more energy than the hexagonal
10 configurations. The SEA-strain curves of the specimens at different strain rates are shown in Figure 20. During the
11 compression process, the re-entrant honeycombs contracted inward, stronger interaction was created between the foam
12 and the frame, so more energy was absorbed by the foam-filled re-entrant honeycombs. As can be seen from the Figure 20,
13 the fast recovery foam-filled honeycombs show a stronger energy absorption capacity at the strain rate of 0.00076 s-1.
14 However, with the increase of strain rate, the SEA of slow recovery foam-filled honeycombs gradually increases and
15 exceeds that of fast recovery foam-filled honeycombs. The SEA of fast recovery foam-filled is almost constant at different
16 strain rates. This indicates that with the increase of strain rates, slow recovery foam is more suitable for filling the interior
17 of the cell as a buffer and energy absorbing material.

5 The validity of the numerical simulation can be judged by comparing the deformation process and stress-strain curve
6 of the experiment and simulation. The deformation process of the FE model is shown in Figure 23. By comparing the test
7 process in Figure 14, it can be found that the deformation process of the slow recovery foam-filled two types of
8 honeycombs is basically the same as that of the simulation. Figure 23 shows that the stress is mainly concentrated on the
9 inclined ribs of the honeycombs during the process of compression. The stress-strain curves of FE models and test are
10 shown in Figure 24. It can be seen from the figure that in the elastic stage, the load of the finite element model is slightly
11 higher, while in the platform stage, the load of the experiment is slightly higher. Despite the difference is existed in the
12 elastic and platform stage, the overall trends of nominal stress-nominal strain curves between experiment and FE are
13 substantially coincident. The reason for the error may be that the accuracy of 3D printing is not high enough and that the
14 hand-cut foam is not the same size as the design, but the error is within the acceptable range. After that, parameterized
15 analysis is based on the FE models.

15 When designing the protective device for buffering and absorbing energy, the composite layer should not achieve
16 densification strain, otherwise the load transferred will increase rapidly with the increase of strain, which will cause damage
17 to the protected structure. Therefore, the energy absorbed when the strain is larger than the densification strain should not
18 be considered in the calculation of SEA. With this approach, the influence of cell wall thickness on SEA of slow recovery
19 foam-filled re-entrant honeycombs is presented in Table 2. The result still shows that the increase of wall thickness
20 improves the SEA of the structures.

10 Figure 28 shows that the Poisson’s ratio of slow recovery foam-filled re-entrant honeycombs with different cell angles.
11 It can be seen from the figure that the deformation trends of all models are consistent. The auxetic effect increases first,
12 and then turns to decrease when the strain reaches the region of 0.11 to 0.15. As the angle decreases, the auxetic effect of
13 the structures increases gradually. The reason is that the internal angle is small and the internal space of the cell is large,
14 leading the structure easy to deform and obtaining a large auxetic effect. On the contrary, the internal space of the cell is
15 small, leading the structure difficult to deform.

1 6. Conclusion
2 In this work, two types of foam-filled honeycomb structures were introduced, which could be used in protective
3 engineering. The deformation modes and energy absorption performance of the two designs under different loading rates
4 were investigated experimentally and numerically. The effects of the cell wall thickness t and the cell angel θ on the foam-
5 filled re-entrant honeycomb were investigated, and some primary factors affecting energy absorption and Poisson’s ratio
6 were also examined. The following conclusions can be drawn:
7 1. Slow recovery foam can provide lateral stiffness for re-entrant honeycombs to effectively prevent lateral buckling.
8 2. Compared with the foam-filled hexagonal honeycombs, the foam-filled re-entrant honeycombs have higher stiffness
9 and bearing capacity.
10 3. With the increase of the loading rate, the energy absorption capacity of slow recovery foam-filled honeycombs
11 gradually increases, and the auxetic effect of slow recovery foam-filled re-entrant honeycomb weakens.
12 4. The energy absorption capacity and auxetic effect of the slow recovery foam-filled re-entrant honeycomb can be
13 increased by increasing the cell wall thickness t and decreasing the cell angel θ.
14 5. Cell wall thickness t has the greatest influence on energy absorption. To change the mechanical properties of the slow
15 recovery foam-filled re-entrant honeycomb, the adjustment of the cell wall thickness t should be considered first.
16 Numerical and experimental results show that, the slow recovery foam-filled re-entrant honeycombs are superior
17 buffer composites for uniaxial crushing with high strain rates, resulting in broad application prospects in the fields of
18 aerospace and vehicle engineering.
