New connections between static elastic cloaking, low frequency elastic wave scattering and neutral inclusions are established in the context of two dimensional elasticity. A cylindrical core surrounded by a cylindrical shell is embedded in…
Metasurfaces provide unique capability in guiding surface waves and controlling their polarization and dispersion properties. One way to do that is by analyzing their equifrequency contours. Equifrequency contours are the 2D projection of…
We study electromagnetic waves scattering by a 2D photonic crystal made of a stack of diffraction gratings. In case where there are only two propagative modes in the crystal, we derive an explicit expression for the superior (resp.…
Space-time modulation of material parameters offers new possibilities for manipulating elastic wave propagation by exploiting time-reversal symmetry breaking. Here we propose and validate a general framework based on the multiple scattering…
In this work, the Schwarz primitive unit cell is used as the building block of different types of metastructures for steering and focusing elastic vibrations. The emergence of a Bragg-type bandgap when constructing a two-dimensional plate…
Rejection of unmitigated vibrational disturbances represents an ongoing dilemma in complex linkage systems. In this work, we present an inherent and self-reliant vibration isolation mechanism in architected periodic chains of serially…
Conventional X-ray methods use incoming plane waves and result in discrete diffraction patterns when scattered at crystals. Here we find, by a systematic method, incoming waveforms which exhibit discrete diffraction patterns when scattered…
Motivated by recent advances in the inverse design of electromagnetic materials, we develop two methods for manipulating flexural waves on thin elastic plates. Firstly, we derive a technique for determining plate pinning or mass-loading of…
A random surface scattering in a one-mode waveguide is studied in the case when the surface profile has long-range correlations along the waveguide. Analytical treatment of this problem shows that with a proper choice of the surface, one…
We study optical coefficients that characterize wave propagation through layered structures called plasmonic crystals. These consist of a finite number of stacked metallic sheets embedded in dielectric hosts with a subwavelength spacing. By…
We make a phenomenological model of optical two-beam interaction in a model planar liquid crystal cell. The liquid crystal is subject to homeotropic anchoring at the cell walls, is surrounded by thin photosensitive layers, and is subject to…
Resonance coupling in non-Hermitian systems can lead to exotic features, such as bound states in the continuum (BICs) and exceptional points (EPs), which have been widely employed to control the propagation and scattering of light. Yet,…
Elastic wave propagation provides a noninvasive way to probe granular materials. The discrete element method using particle configuration as input, allows a micromechanical interpretation on the acoustic response of a given granular system.…
When granular mixtures of different sizes are fluidized, each species spontaneously separates and condenses to form patterns. Although granular segregation has been extensively studied, the inability to directly observe the time evolution…
The existence of phase resonances in obliquely illuminated, perfectly conducting compound gratings is investigated. The diffraction problem of a p-polarized plane wave impinging on the structure is solved using the modal approach. The…
Elastic wave propagation is intrinsically sensitive to the mechanical properties of the medium through which it travels. In soft elastomers, this makes guided elastic waves natural probes of viscoelastic and acoustoelastic behavior over a…
We present detailed analytical modelling and in-depth investigation of wide-angle reflect-mode metagrating beam splitters. These recently introduced ultrathin devices are capable of implementing intricate diffraction engineering…
Wave scattering from a cylinder with a tensor impedance surface is investigated based on the Lorentz-Mie theory. A practical example of such a cylinder is a subwavelength metallic rod with helical dielectric-filled corrugations. The…
Acoustic and elastic metamaterials with time- and space-dependent material properties have received great attention recently as a means to break reciprocity for propagating mechanical waves, achieving greater directional control. One…
As opposed to metasurfaces, metagratings represent themselves sparse arrangements of scatterers. Established rigorous analytical models allow metagratings to overcome performance of metasurfaces in beam steering applications while handling…
