Abstract
The cellular composite´s unit cell is based on the common honeycomb configuration, but includes auxetic and nonauxetic variants. Formulas that describe the essential electromagnetic and structural properties of the honeycomb are described, and a multidisciplinary design procedure outlined. The effects of the manufacturing process on design methodology are also discussed.
