Recently, new artificial material has been proposed to control an electromagnetic wave-metasurface, a two-dimensional metamaterial. Compared with a three-dimensional bulky metamaterial, this artificial plane material with sub-wavelength…
We study beam transmission and refection resulting from the resonant excitation of forward and backward surface waves in a metamaterial. We predict that exciting these waves at an interface this medium and free space led to transmitted and…
The aim of this work is to derive precise formulas which describe how the properties of subwavelength devices are changed by the introduction of errors and imperfections. As a demonstrative example, we study a class of cochlea-inspired…
Underwater noise pollution caused by anthropogenic activities, such as offshore wind farms, significantly affects marine life, hindering the intra- and inter-specific interactions of many aquatic species. A common strategy to mitigate these…
We investigate the propagation of surface acoustic waves (SAWs) in a layered half-space system comprising a continuous, sub-wavelength-thick layer weakly adhering to a substrate. Using finite element simulations, we demonstrate that this…
We propose the design and measurement of an acoustic metasurface retroreflector that works at three discrete incident angles. An impedance model is developed such that for acoustic waves impinging at -60 degrees, the reflected wave is…
This paper describes a new kind of acoustic metasurface with multiply resonant units, which have previously been used to induce multiple resonances and effectively produce negative mass density and bulk/shear moduli. The proposed acoustic…
Existing theoretical results for attenuation of surface waves propagating on water of random fluctuating depth are shown to over predict the rate of decay due to the way in which ensemble averaging is performed. A revised approach is…
Control of electromagnetic waves using engineered materials is very important in a wide range of applications, therefore there is always a continuous need for new and more efficient solutions. Known natural and artificial materials and…
The effect of the presence of a finite impedance surface on the wave propagation properties of a two-dimensional periodic array of rigid cylinders with their axes perpendicular to the surface is both numerically and experimentally analyzed…
The seismically excited motion of high-Q pendula in gravitational-wave observatories sets a sensitivity limit to sub-audio gravitational-wave frequencies. Here, we report on the use of machine learning to predict the motion of a high-Q…
Negative refraction of acoustic waves is demonstrated through underwater experiments conducted at ultrasonic frequencies on a 3D locally resonant acoustic metafluid made of soft porous silicone-rubber micro-beads suspended in a yield-stress…
An ensemble of resonators arranged on a sub-wavelength scale is usually considered as a bulk effective medium, known as a metamaterial, and can offer unusual macroscopic properties. Here, we take a different approach and limit ourselves to…
We present a novel experiment on interfacial wave dynamics in orbitally shaken cylindrical vessels containing two- and three fluid layers. The experiment was designed as a hydrodynamical model for both alu- minum reduction cells and liquid…
Metasurfaces impart phase discontinuities on impinging electromagnetic waves that are typically limited to 0-2$\pi$. Here, we show that they can break free from this limitation and supply arbitrarily-large phase modulation over ultra-wide…
We propose a fundamentally new method for the design of metamaterial arrays, valid for any waves modeled by the Helmholtz equation, including scalar optics and acoustics. The design and analysis of these devices is based on eigenvalue and…
We present experimental and numerical studies of localized terahertz surface waves on a subwavelength-thick metamaterial film consisting of in-plane split-ring resonators. A simple and intuitive model is derived that describes the…
We have developed a low temperature, high-resolution microwave surface impedance probe that is able to operate in high static magnetic fields. Surface impedance is measured by cavity perturbation of dielectric resonators, with sufficient…
In this work, we provide a proof-of-concept experimental demonstration of the wave control capabilities of cellular metamaterials endowed with populations of tunable electromechanical resonators. Each independently tunable resonator…
Vibration attenuation has played a crucial role in engineering structure, wherein metamaterials have found escalated usage. These structures can be cleverly built to be lightweight and have negative mass properties, which can attenuate…
