Acoustic waves in a linear time-invariant medium are generally reciprocal; however, reciprocity can break down in a time-variant system. In this Letter, we report on an experimental demonstration of nonreciprocity in a dynamic…

An incremental wave superimposed on a pre-deformed hyper-elastic material perceives an elastic media with the instantaneous modulus of the current material. This offers a new route with a broadband feature to control elastic waves by…

We study the transport and localization properties of scalar vibrations on a lattice with random bond strength by means of the transfer matrix method. This model has been recently suggested as a means to investigate the vibrations and heat…

Moire lattices consist of two identical periodic structures overlaid with a relative rotation angle. Present even in everyday life, moire lattices have been also produced, e.g., with coupled graphene-hexagonal boron nitride monolayers,…

The localization of waves in two-dimensional clusters of scatterers arranged in relatively twisted lattices is studied by multiple scattering theory. It is found that, for a given frequency, it is always possible to find localized modes for…

The sensitivity of transmission to the input wavefront is a hallmark feature of complex media and the basis for wavefront shaping techniques. Yet, intriguing special cases exist in which the output wavefront is "frozen" (agnostic to the…

By designing tailor-made resonance modes with structured atoms, metamaterials allow us to obtain constitutive parameters outside their limited range from natural or composite materials. Nonetheless, tuning the constitutive parameters relies…

Localized wave fronts are a fundamental feature of biological systems from cell biology to ecology. Here, we study a broad class of bistable models subject to self-activation, degradation and spatially inhomogeneous activating agents. We…

We study frequency conversion in nonlinear mechanical lattices, focusing on a chain of magnets as a model system. We show that by inserting mass defects at suitable locations, we can introduce localized vibrational modes that nonlinearly…

The aim of this article is to study the attenuation of transient low-frequency waves in 2D lattices in both plane and antiplane problems. The main idea of this article is that analytical solutions to problems of mechanics of discrete…

We investigate light propagation through materials with periodically modulated gain/loss profile in both transverse and longitudinal directions, i.e. in material with two-dimensional modulation in space. We predict effects of…

Symmetry and localization properties of defect modes of a one-dimensional bi-component magnonic superlattice are theoretically studied. The magnonic superlattice can be seen as a periodic array of nanostripes, where stripes with different…

Defects in the atomic lattice of solids are sometimes desired. For example, atomic vacancies, single ones or more elaborated defective structures, can generate localized magnetic moments in a non magnetic crystalline lattice. Increasing…

We show how the evolution of atoms in a tilted lattice can be changed and controlled by phase noise on the lattice. Dependent on the characteristic parameters of the noise, the interband transport can either be suppressed or enhanced, which…

Amongst the various fascinating types of material behavior featured by magnetic gels and elastomers are magnetostrictive effects. That is, deformations in shape or changes in volume are induced from outside by external magnetic fields.…

In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate how discrete resonances can be used to image acoustic sources and mechanical changes in thin plates with different boundary shapes. The proposed method uses coupled numerical and experimental…

Linear and nonlinear mechanisms for conical wave propagation in two-dimensional lattices are explored in the realm of phononic crystals. As a prototypical example, a statically compressed granular lattice of spherical particles arranged in…

We studied the dispersion properties of double interlaced wire metamaterials with geometry modified by affine transformation. That metamaterials were found to support eigenmodes with longitudinal polarization at low frequencies for all…

Crack front waves (FWs) are dynamic objects that propagate along moving crack fronts in 3D materials. We study FW dynamics in the framework of a 3D phase-field framework that features a rate-dependent fracture energy $\Gamma(v)$ ($v$ is the…

Cavities, because they trap waves for long times due to their reflecting walls, are used in a vast number of scientific domains. Indeed, in these closed media and due to interferences, the free space continuum of solutions becomes a…
