In this paper, we consider the approximate acoustic cloaking in inhomogeneous isotropic background space. By employing transformation media, together with the use of a sound-soft layer lining right outside the cloaked region, we show that…
Cloaking elastic waves has, in contrast to the cloaking of electromagnetic waves, remained a fundamental challenge: the latter successfully uses the invariance of Maxwell's equations, from which the field of transformational optics has…

Cloaking using complementary media was suggested by Lai et al. in [8]. The study of this problem faces two difficulties. Firstly, this problem is unstable since the equations describing the phenomenon have sign changing coefficients, hence…

Cloaking using complementary media was suggested by Lai et al. This was proved in the quasistatic regime by H. M. Nguyen. One of the difficulties in the study of this problem is the appearance of the localized resonance, i.e., the fields…
