Group velocity of the acoustic eigen-modes in sonic crystals

Classical Physics 2007-05-23 v1 General Physics

Abstract

In this brief report, the group velocity of the eigen-modes in sonic crystals is derived, and shown to equal the averaged energy velocity of the eigen-modes. How the group velocity can be used to describe acoustic energy flows in sonic crystals is discussed.
