In this paper, a coherent boundary value problem to model metamaterials' behavior based on the relaxed micromorphic model is established. This boundary value problem includes well-posed boundary conditions, thus disclosing the possibility…
The conception of new metamaterials showing unorthodox behaviors with respect to elastic wavepropagation has become possible in recent years thanks to powerful dynamical homogenization techniques. Such methods effectively allow to describe…
In this paper, we propose an approach for describing wave propagation in finite-size microstructured metamaterials using a reduced relaxed micromorphic model. This method introduces an additional kinematic field with respect to the…
In this paper, we present a unit cell showing a band-gap in the lower acoustic domain. The corresponding metamaterial is made up of a periodic arrangement of this unit cell. We rigorously show that the relaxed micromorphic model can be used…
Exploring the dynamical response of mechanical metamaterials has gathered increasing attention in the last decades, enabling the design of microstructures exotically interacting with elastic waves (focusing, channeling, band-gaps, negative…
In this paper the relaxed micromorphic material model for anisotropic elasticity is used to describe the dynamical behavior of a band-gap metamaterial with tetragonal symmetry. Unlike other continuum models (Cauchy, Cosserat, second…
In the present paper, the material parameters of the isotropic relaxed micromorphic model derived for a specific metamaterial in a previous contribution are used to model its transmission properties. Specifically, the reflection and…
While the design of always new metamaterials with exotic static and dynamic properties is attracting deep attention in the last decades, little effort is made to explore their interactions with other materials. This prevents the conception…
We use the reduced relaxed micromorphic model (RRMM) to capture the effective "bulk" dynamical response of finite size metamaterial specimens made out of a Labyrinthine unit cell. We show that for small finite-size specimens, boundary…
In this paper, we study the anisotropy classes of the fourth order elastic tensors of the relaxed micromorphic model, also introducing their second order counterpart by using a Voigt-type vector notation. In strong contrast with the usual…
Intelligent metamaterials have attracted widespread research interest due to their self-adaptive capabilities and controllability. They hold great potential for advancing fluid control by providing responsive and flexible solutions.…
Mechanical metamaterials exhibit size-effects when a few unit-cells are subjected to static loading because no clear micro-macro scale separation holds and the characteristic length of the deformation becomes comparable to the unit-cell…
In this paper we model the size-effects of metamaterial beams under bending with the aid of the relaxed micromorphic continuum. We analyze first the size-dependent bending stiffness of heterogeneous fully discretized metamaterial beams…
This paper introduces for the first time the concepts of non-coherent interfaces and microstructure-driven interface forces in the framework of micromorphic elasticity. It is shown that such concepts are of paramount importance when…
Metamaterials and metasurfaces are designed by periodically arranged subwavelength geometries, allowing a tailored manipulation of the electromagnetic response of matter. Here, we exploit temporal variations of permittivity inside…
In this paper, we show that the transient waveforms arising from several localised pulses in a micro-structured material can be reproduced by a corresponding generalised continuum of the relaxed micromorphic type. Specifically, we compare…
In this paper we show that an enriched continuum model of the micromorphic type (Relaxed Micromorphic Model) can be used to model metamaterials' response in view of their use for meta-structural design. We focus on the fact that the reduced…
We consider numerical simulation of the isotropic elastic wave equations arising from seismic applications with non-trivial land topography. The more flexible finite element method is applied to the shallow region of the simulation domain…
The paper presents a numerical study for the finite element method with anisotropic meshes. We compare the accuracy of the numerical solutions on quasi-uniform, isotropic, and anisotropic meshes for a test problem which combines several…
A numerical study on the elastic response of single- and multi-layer systems formed by alternating pentamode lattices and stiffening plates is presented. Finite element simulations are conducted to analyze the dependence of the effective…
