A lattice of elastic Rayleigh rods organized in a parallelepiped geometry can be axially loaded up to an arbitrary amount without distortion and then be subject to incremental time-harmonic dynamic motion. At certain threshold levels of…
A lattice of elastic rods organized in a parallelepiped geometry can be axially loaded up to an arbitrary amount without distortion and then be subject to incremental displacements. Using quasi-static homogenization theory, this lattice can…
We address an important issue of a dynamic homogenisation in vector elasticity for a doubly periodic mass-spring elastic lattice. The notion of logarithmically growing resonant waves is used in a complete analysis of star-shaped wave forms…
In this work, we investigate the dynamics and attenuation properties of a one-dimensional inertial amplified lattice with opposite chirality. The unit cell of the structure consists of a hollow-square plate connected to a ring through…
The use of multifunctional composite materials adopting piezo-electric periodic cellular lattice structures with auxetic elastic behavior is a recent and promising solution in the design of piezoelectric sensors. In the present work,…
In-plane wave propagation in a periodic rectangular grid beam structure, which includes rotational inertia (so-called 'Rayleigh beams'), is analyzed both with a Floquet-Bloch exact formulation for free oscillations and with a numerical…
The engineered class of anti-tetrachiral cellular materials is phenomenologically characterized by a strong auxeticity of the elastic macroscopic response. The auxetic behavior, accompanied by a marked anisotropy, is activated by rolling-up…
The paper addresses novel dispersion properties of elastic flexural waves in periodic structures which possess rotational inertia. The structure is represented as a lattice, whose elementary links are formally defined as the Rayleigh beams.…
A complete methodology, based on a two-scale asymptotic approach, that enables the homogenisation of elastic lattices at non-zero frequencies is developed. Elastic lattices are distinguished from scalar lattices in that two or more types of…
Homogenization of the incremental response of grids made up of preloaded elastic rods leads to homogeneous effective continua which may suffer macroscopic instability, occurring at the same time in both the grid and the effective continuum.…
This work studies the constitutive response of two- and three-dimensional lattice materials subject to isotropic prestress. The unit cell of the examined lattices is formed by an arbitrary number of junctions attached to a junction.…
This study investigates the impact of sliders -- constraints acting on elastic rods allowing for a transverse displacement jump while maintaining axial and rotational displacement continuity -- on the dynamics of a periodic elastic grid,…
The propagation of acoustic and elastic waves in time-varying, spatially homogeneous media can exhibit different phenomena when compared to traditional spatially-varying, temporally-homogeneous media. In the present work, the response of a…
A multiscale asymptotic homogenization method for periodic microstructured materials in presence of thermoelasticity with periodic spatially dependent one relaxation time is introduced. The asymptotic expansions of the micro-displacement…
In this work, the analysis of oblique anti-plane shear waves propagation and scattering in low frequency resonant micro-structured layered media with viscoelastic constituent layers is presented. The band structure of the infinitely…
Elastic wave dispersion is studied in an octet truss lattice and compared with a designed rib lattice known to exhibit strong Cosserat elastic effects. Dispersion entails variation of wave speed with frequency. The phenomenon is…
A multifield asymptotic homogenization technique for periodic thermo-diffusive elastic materials is provided in the present study. Field equations for the first-order equivalent medium are derived and overall constitutive tensors are…
The paper is focused on the dynamic homogenization of lattice-like materials with lumped mass at the nodes to obtain energetically consistent models providing accurate descriptions of the acoustic behavior of the discrete system. The…
Lattice structures have tailorable mechanical properties which allows them to exhibit superior mechanical properties (per unit weight) beyond what is achievable through natural materials. In this paper, quasi-static and dynamic behavior of…
Mitigating low-frequency noise is particularly challenging due to its limited natural attenuation. This study aims to design viscoelastic composite microstructures that achieve both low acoustic reflection and high internal damping by…
