The terms "acoustic/elastic meta-materials" describe a class of periodic structures with unit cells exhibiting local resonance. This localized resonant structure has been shown to result in negative effective stiffness and/or mass at…
We propose a new type of platonic crystal. The proposed microstructured plate includes snail resonators with low-frequency resonant vibrations. The particular dynamic effect of the resonators are highlighted by a comparative analysis of…
Acoustic metamaterials and phononic crystals represent a promising platform for the development of noise-insulating systems characterized by a low weight and small thickness. Nevertheless, the operational spectral range of these structures…
Two-dimensional ternary locally resonant phononic crystals used to consist of cylindrical scatterers with uniform coatings in their exterior. An alternative coating scheme with a comblike profile is proposed and investigated in this letter.…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
An acoustic metamaterial made of a two-dimensional (2D) periodic array of multi-resonant acoustic scatterers is analysed in this paper. The building blocks consist of a combination of elastic beams of Low-Density Polyethylene Foam (LDPF)…
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 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…
Inspired by [25], this paper investigates subwavelength bandgaps in phononic crystals consisting of periodically arranged hard elastic materials embedded in a soft elastic background medium. Our contributions are threefold. First, we…
Mitigating low-frequency vibration or noise is of vital importance to both human health and mechanical engineering. Two-dimensional phononic crystal (PC) structures were proposed by attaching rubber and metallic cylinders on one or both…
Sonic crystal acoustic screens have been in progressive research and development in the last two decades as a technical solution for mitigating traffic noise. Their behaviour is quite different from that observed in classical barriers, with…
We investigate the band-gap structure of the frequency spectrum for elastic waves in a high-contrast, two-component periodic elastic medium. We consider two-dimensional phononic crystals consisting of a background medium which is perforated…
Floquet time crystals, characterized by momentum gaps (k-gaps), have sparked intense interest across various branches of physics due to their intriguing dynamics and promising applications. Despite growing theoretical efforts, the…
We introduce the concept of effective phononic crystals, which combine periodicity with varying isotropic material properties to force periodic coefficients in the elastic equations of motion in a non-Cartesian basis. Periodic coefficients…
Research into properties of heterogeneous artificial materials, consisting of arrangements of rigid scatterers embedded in a medium with different elastic properties, has been intense throughout last two decades. The capability to prevent…
Topological phononic crystals (PCs) are periodic artificial structures which can support nontrivial acoustic topological bands, and their topological properties are linked to the existence of topological edge modes. Most previous studies…
