Previous research has attempted to minimize the influence of loss in reflection- and transmission-type acoustic metasurfaces. This letter shows that, by treating the acoustic metasurface as a non-Hermitian system and by harnessing loss,…

We introduce a one dimensional parity-time (PT)-symmetric nonlinear magnetic metamaterial consisted of split ring dimers having both gain and loss. When nonlinearity is absent we find a transition between an exact to a broken PT-phase; in…

Known sparsity thresholds for basis pursuit to deliver the maximally sparse solution of the compressed sensing recovery problem typically depend on the dictionary's coherence. While the coherence is easy to compute, it can lead to rather…

Skateboarders perform a reciprocating motion on a curved ramp, called pumping, by moving their bodies up and down perpendicular to the ramp's surface. We propose a simple mechanical model for this pumping motion and solve the equation of…

The advent of acoustic metamaterials opened up a new frontier in the control of sound transmission. A key limitation, however, is that an acoustic metamaterial based on a single local resonator in the unit cell produces a restricted…
A homogeneous negative permeability sphere can support magnetic localized surface plasmons (MLSPs). Generally, negative permeability materials are metamaterial (MM) structures exhibiting very deep subwavelength spatial scales, whose effects…
