In this paper we develop a multiple scattering model for elastic waves in random anisotropic media. It relies on a kinetic approach of wave propagation phenomena pertaining to the situation whereby the wavelength is comparable to the…
Scattering by (a) a single composite scatterer consisting of a concentric arrangement of an outer N-slit rigid cylinder and an inner cylinder which is either rigid or in the form of a thin elastic shell and (b) by a finite periodic array of…
Multiple scattering of waves in complex media can be harnessed and tailored for diverse phenomena in sound and light. Despite the tremendous progress enabled by technologies such as time-reversal propagation and wavefront shaping, the full…
The dynamics of an ensemble of bistable elements under the influence of noise and with global time-delayed coupling is studied numerically by using a Langevin description and analytically by using 1) a Gaussian approximation and 2) a…
In this study we demonstrate a self-oscillating acoustic meta-atom functioning as an amplifying transistor, where a steady external flow serves as a control signal to switch between reflective (off-state) and transmissive (on-state)…
We present a multichannel model for elastic interactions, comprised of an arbitrary number of coupled finite square-well potentials, and derive semi-analytic solutions for its scattering behavior. Despite the model's simplicity, it is…
The dynamical control of energy transfer between interacting systems is fundamental in diverse applications related to physical, electronic and chemical processes. Recent developments show that noise may enhance or suppress power transfer…
We review, in a self-contained and pedagogical manner, recent developments and techniques for the evaluation of the scattering amplitudes of planar N=4 SYM theory at both weak and strong coupling. Special emphasis is placed on the newly…
Recent advances in gradient metasurfaces have shown that only by locally controlling the bianisotropic response of the constituent cells can one ensure full control of refraction, i.e., arbitrarily modify the direction of the incident waves…
Space-time varying media with moving interfaces unlock new ways to manipulate electromagnetic waves. Yet, analytical solutions have been mostly limited to interfaces moving at constant velocity or constant proper acceleration. Here, we…
The effectiveness of biochemical antivirals are vulnerable to mutations, motivating physical approaches. Recent experiments with ultrasound reveal viral disruption at MHz frequencies, yet the mechanism remains unclear. We model viruses as…
Acoustic traps use forces exerted by sound waves to confine and transport small objects. The dynamics of an object moving in the force landscape of an acoustic trap can be significantly influenced by the inertia of the surrounding fluid…
The dynamics of an ensemble of bistable elements with global time-delayed coupling under the influence of noise is studied analytically and numerically. Depending on the noise level the system undergoes ordering transitions and demonstrates…
It is found that in magnetized electrostatic plasma flows the velocity shear couples ion-acoustic waves with ion-cyclotron waves and leads, under favorable conditions, to their efficient reciprocal transformations. It is shown that in a…
We design, simulate, and experimentally characterize an acoustic metasurface comprising of a 1D array of open, sound-hard, cavities, modulated with beyond-nearest-neighbor (BNN) couplings in the form of additional connecting cavities…
We consider the resonance and scattering properties of a composite medium containing scatterers whose properties are modulated in time. When excited with an incident wave of a single frequency, the scattered field consists of a family of…
The issue of how to define and determine an optimal acoustical fit to a set of anisotropic elastic constants is addressed. The optimal moduli are defined as those which minimize the mean squared difference in the acoustical tensors between…
In this work, we study the acoustic forces acting on particles due to sound scattering at the interface with an elastic substrate. Utilizing the Green's function formalism, we predict that excitation of leaking Rayleigh wave results in…
Diverse complex systems often undergo sudden changes in their states, such as epileptic seizures, climate changes, and social uprisings. Such behavior has been modeled by noise-induced escape of bistable elements, which is the escape from…
The common behavior of a wave is determined by wave parameters of its medium, which are generally associated with the characteristic oscillations of its corresponding elementary particles. In the context of metamaterials, the decoupled…
