We propose a scheme of acoustic spherical cloaking by means of background irrotational flow in compressible fluid. The background flow forms a virtual curved spacetime and guides the sound waves bypass the cloaked objects. To satisfy the…
An acoustic cloak envelopes an object so that sound incident from all directions passes through and around the cloak as though the object were not present. A theory of acoustic cloaking is developed using the transformation or…
We propose a realization of a transformation-based acoustic temporal cloak using an active closed-loop control approach to an equivalent electromagnetic problem. Unlike the more common spatial cloaks the goal of which is hiding fixed…
Acoustic metamaterials are engineered microstructures with special mechanical and acoustic properties enabling exotic effects such as wave steering, focusing and cloaking. The design of acoustic cloaks using scattering cancellation has…
Transformation Acoustics emerged in the mid-2000s, initiating a new paradigm of metamaterial designs. One of the most compelling designs, the invisibility cloak, holds promise for stealth and noise reduction applications in aviation.…
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…
We start by a review of the chronology of mathematical results on the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map which paved the way towards the physics of transformational acoustics. We then rederive the expression for the (anisotropic) density and bulk…
A new type of simplified cloaks with matched exterior boundaries is proposed. The cloak uses non-magnetic material for the TM polarization and can function with a relatively thin thickness. It is shown that the $zero^{th}$ order scattering…
Fundamental features of rotationally symmetric acoustic cloaks with anisotropic inertia are derived. Two universal relations are found to connect the radial and transverse phase speeds and the bulk modulus in the cloak. Perfect cloaking…
Transformation-based cylindrical cloaks and concentrators are illuminated with non-monochromatic waves and unusual effects are observed with interesting potential applications. The transient responses of the devices are studied numerically…
Superscatterers are known to expand the rigid boundary of an object thereby enhancing the scattering cross section of the object. The design philosophy of the acoustic superscatterers is based on partially-resonant systems in which a…
We propose a mechanism to actively tune the operation of plasmonic cloaks with an external magnetic field by investigating electromagnetic scattering by a dielectric cylinder coated with a magneto-optical shell. In the long wavelength limit…
We cloak a region from a known incident wave by surrounding the region with three or more devices that cancel out the field in the cloaked region without significantly radiating waves. Since very little waves reach scatterers within the…
The authors present an impedance-matched reduced version of acoustic cloaking whose mass is in a reasonable range. A layered cloak design with isotropic material is also proposed for the reduced cloak. Numerical calculations from the…
The scattering process of a dynamic perturbation impinging on a draining-tub model of an acoustic black hole is numerically solved in the time domain. Analogies with real black holes of General Relativity are explored by using recently…
This paper proposes a radial dependent dispersive finite-difference time-domain method for the modelling of electromagnetic cloaking structures. The permittivity and permeability of the cloak are mapped to the Drude dispersion model and…
The dynamic response of a coated inclusion is considered in the context of active cloaking. The active cloak is achieved for a coated inclusion in the presence of membrane and flexural waves. In this paper, we investigate the design of an…
We investigate the twofold functionality of a cylindrical shell consisting of a negatively refracting heterogeneous bianisotropic (NRHB) medium deduced from geometric transforms. The numerical simulations indicate that the shell enhances…
We study the time-domain acoustic wave propagation in the presence of a micro-bubble. This micro-bubble is characterized by a mass density and bulk modulus which are both very small as compared to the ones of the background vacuum. The goal…
In an electromagnetic cloak based on a transformation approach, reduced sets of material properties are generally favored due to their easier implementation in reality, although a seemingly inevitable drawback of undesired reflection exists…
