The propagation of intense acoustic waves in a one-dimensional phononic crystal is studied. The medium consists in a structured fluid, formed by a periodic array of fluid layers with alternating linear acoustic properties and quadratic…
Architected materials that control elastic wave propagation are essential in vibration mitigation and sound attenuation. Phononic crystals and acoustic metamaterials use band gap engineering to forbid certain frequencies from propagating…
In solid state physics, a bandgap (BG) refers to a range of energies where no electronic states can exist. This concept was extended to classical waves, spawning the entire fields of photonic and phononic crystals where BGs are frequency…
Phononic crystals and metamaterials take advantage of pre-designed geometrical structures to sculpt elastic waves, controlling their dispersion using different mechanisms. These mechanisms revolve mostly around Bragg scattering (BS), local…
We show some new properties of the acoustic propagation in two-dimensional sonic crystals, formed by parallel rigid cylinders placed in air. The transmission through slabs of sonic crystals and the associated band structures are considered.…
Bandgaps, or frequency ranges of forbidden wave propagation, are a hallmark of Phononic Crystals (PnCs). Unlike their lattice counterparts, PnCs taking the form of continuous structures exhibit an infinite number of bandgaps of varying…
Elastic metamaterials are man-made structures with properties that transcend naturally occurring materials. One predominant feature of elastic metamaterials is locally resonant bandgaps, i.e., frequency ranges at which wave propagation is…
We present graphic results with high-levels of abstraction to desribe the basic principles and rules of thumb for acoustic or phononic band-gap engineering. We use these rules for developing an improved machien mount for damping acoustic…
The wave equation governing the wave propagation in chiral phononic crystals, established through force equilibrium law, conceals the underlying physical information. This has led to a controversy over the bandgap mechanism. In this letter,…
Elastic metamaterials made from locally resonant arrays have been developed as effective ways to create band gaps for elastic or acoustic travelling waves. They work by implementing stationary states in the structure that localise and…
The ability to control wave propagation is of fundamental interest in many areas of physics. Photonic and phononic crystals have proved very useful for this purpose but, because they are based on Bragg interference, these artificial media…
It is well-known that band gaps, in the frequency domain, can be achieved by using periodic metamaterials. However it has been challenging to design materials with broad band gaps or that have multiple overlapping band gaps. For periodic…
Chiral phononic crystals provide unique properties not offered by conventional phononic material based on Bragg scattering and local resonance. However, it is insufficient to only consider the inertial amplification effect in chiral…
Spectral gaps in the vibrational modes of disordered solids are key design elements in the synthesis and control of phononic metamaterials that exhibit a plethora of novel elastic and mechanical properties. However, reliably producing these…
Phononic crystals exhibit Bragg bandgaps, frequency regions within which wave propagation is forbidden. In solid continua, bandgaps are the outcome of destructive interferences resulting from periodically alternating layers. Under certain…
Beyond classical Bragg diffraction, we report on new sub-Bragg phenomena to achieve enhanced sound wave tunability in the low-frequency range in a multilayered acoustic metamaterial system. Remarkably, we reveal and study the formation of…
We study lightweight, elastic metamaterials consisting of tensegrity-inspired prisms, which present wide, low-frequency band gaps. For their realization, we alternate tensegrity elements with solid discs in periodic arrangements that we…
Serpentine interconnects are highly stretchable and frequently used in flexible electronic systems. In this work, we show that the undulating geometry of the serpentine interconnects will generate phononic band gaps to manipulate elastic…
This article considers the computational (acoustic) wave propagation in strongly heterogeneous structures beyond the assumption of periodicity. A high contrast between the constituents of microstructured multiphase materials can lead to…
It is demonstrated that sonic crystals (periodic structures of sound scatterers) can be used to design acoustic barriers that attenuate efficiently broadband noise. Traffic noise is chosen here as an example in which our design procedure is…
