The paper investigates the deformation behavior of a mechanical metamaterial. The metamaterial is made up of tetrachiral elements. An analytical solution is obtained for the deformation behavior of a unit cell of the metamaterial depending on its parameters. The results of the analytical solution were used for numerical modeling. The computer FEM model was built using beam elements. The numerical solution of the mechanical loading of the metamaterial was performed in the static case of the linear theory of elasticity. In the course of numerical simulation of the uniaxial loading of the mechanical metamaterial, it was found that the specimen inclines when elongated. The difference in inclination angles between the right and left sides of the specimen is probably related to the rotation of the ring in the tetrachiral structure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
