In this paper, the flutter behaviour of simply supported square functionally graded material plates immersed in a supersonic flow is studied. An enriched 4-noded quadrilateral element based on field consistency approach is used for this…
The study of this theoretical work definitely adds extra four new dispersive shear-horizontal waves propagating in the transversely isotropic piezoelectromagnetic (PEM) plates of class 6 mm. In this study, the following mechanical,…
Extremely asymmetrical scattering (EAS) is a new type of Bragg scattering in thick, slanted, periodic gratings. It is realised when the scattered wave propagates parallel to the front boundary of the grating. Its most important feature is…
Superscattering, induced by degenerate resonances, breaks the fundamental single-channel limit of scattering cross section of subwavelength structures; in principle, an arbitrarily large total cross section can be achieved via…
The interaction of an acoustic plane wave with a pair of plates connected by periodically spaced stiffeners in water is considered. The rib-stiffened structure is called a "flex-layer" because its low frequency response is dominated by…

Two microring resonators, one with gain and one with loss, coupled to each other and to a bus waveguide, create an effective non-Hermitian potential for light propagating in the waveguide. Due to geometry, coupling for each microring…
We introduce a new mechanism that produces a Hall-like response in time-reversal-invariant materials, driven entirely by geometric effects. Specifically, we demonstrate that a tilted potential interface causes electron wave packets to…
In the recent years, much attention has been devoted to the inhomogeneous nature of the mechanical response at the nano-scale in disordered solids. Clearly, the elastic heterogeneities that have been characterized in this context are…
We present mathematical theory for understanding the transmission spectra of heterogeneous materials formed by generalised Fibonacci tilings. Our results, firstly, characterise super band gaps, which are spectral gaps that exist for any…
Recents works deal with the optical transmission on arrays of subwavelength holes in a metallic layer deposited on a dielectric substrate. Making the system as realistic as possible, we perform simulations to enlighten the experimental…
Refraction at the interface between two materials is fundamental to the interaction of light with photonic devices and to the propagation of light through the atmosphere at large. Underpinning the traditional rules for the refraction of an…
Using the concepts of slow sound and of critical coupling, an ultra-thin acoustic metamaterial panel for perfect and omnidirectional absorption is theoretically and experimentally conceived in this work. The system is made of a rigid panel…

The insertion of the band gap $\Delta$ in the rippled graphene superlattice leads to new outcomes, as demonstrated. The essential thing is the appearance of opposite-spin transmissions, which increase with $\Delta$ and vanish without it.…
Ultrasound waves propagating in water or soft biological tissue are strongly reflected when encountering the skull, which limits the use of ultrasound-based techniques in transcranial imaging and therapeutic applications. Current knowledge…
