Modulational instability of magnetoelastic metamaterials

Materials Science 2012-05-16 v1

Abstract

We study the modulational instability of recently designed magnetoelastic metamaterials composed of elastic-mediated split-ring resonators (SRR). An effective circuit model is developed. Then four cases are studied: a dimer of SRR, one-dimension (1D) dimerized array, 1D uniform array and two-dimension layered array. It is found that except for the dimer case, all the other many-body cases can present modulational instability which may disturb the bistability (if any) under uniform assumption.
