Book excerpt: The revised edition of this book offers an expanded review of acoustic metamaterials; novel materials which can manipulate sound waves in surprising ways, which include collimation, focusing, cloaking, sonic screening and extraordinary transmission. It covers both experimental and theoretical aspects of acoustic and elastic waves propagating in structured composites, with a focus on effective properties associated with negative refraction, lensing and cloaking. Updated chapters cover filtering effects, extraordinary transmission, sub-wavelength imaging via tomography or time-reversal techniques, cloaking via transformation acoustics, elastodynamics, and acoustic scattering cancellation. For this revised edition, three new chapters have been introduced to reflect developments in experimental acoustics and metasurfaces, resonators atop surfaces and elastic metamaterials. The broad scope gives the reader an overview of the state of the art in acoustic metamaterials research and an indication of future directions and applications. It will serve as a solid introduction to the field for advanced students, and a valuable reference for those working in metamaterials and related areas.

Book Fundamentals and Applications of Acoustic Metamaterials

Download or read book Fundamentals and Applications of Acoustic Metamaterials written by Vicente Romero-Garcia and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-08-09 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few decades, metamaterials have revolutionized the ways in which waves are controlled, and applied in physics and practical situations. The extraordinary properties of metamaterials, such as their locally resonant structure with deep subwavelength band gaps and their ranges of frequency where propagation is impossible, have opened the way to a host of applications that were previously unavailable. Acoustic metamaterials have been able to replace traditional treatments in several sectors, due to their better performance in targeted and tunable frequency ranges with strongly reduced dimensions. This is a training book composed of nine chapters written by experts in the field, giving a broad overview of acoustic metamaterials and their uses. The book is divided into three parts, covering the state-of-the-art, the fundamentals and the real-life applications of acoustic metamaterials.

Book Geometric Control of Fracture and Topological Metamaterials

Download or read book Geometric Control of Fracture and Topological Metamaterials written by Noah Mitchell and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis reports a rare combination of experiment and theory on the role of geometry in materials science. It is built on two significant findings: that curvature can be used to guide crack paths in a predictive way, and that protected topological order can exist in amorphous materials. In each, the underlying geometry controls the elastic behavior of quasi-2D materials, enabling the control of crack propagation in elastic sheets and the control of unidirectional waves traveling at the boundary of metamaterials. The thesis examines the consequences of this geometric control in a range of materials spanning many orders of magnitude in length scale, from amorphous macroscopic networks and elastic continua to nanoscale lattices.

Book Computational Material Design Study of Acoustic Metamaterials and Structures by Topology Optimization

Download or read book Computational Material Design Study of Acoustic Metamaterials and Structures by Topology Optimization written by David Roca Cazorla and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acoustic metamaterials are artificially designed and manufactured structures with dy-namical properties that are not typically found in naturally-occurring materials. The design of acoustic metamaterials is considered to be in its infancy but is progressively emerging to provide both scientists and engineers with a wide range of practical appli-cations, mostly dealing with acoustic waves' manipulation, thus becoming a key ena-bling technology to overcome a number of the near future scientific and engineering challenges. At present, the design of acoustic metamaterials is mainly done with proce-dures based on experience and results obtained from theoretical studies which have a lack of real practical application. In this context, cutting-edge computational design tools such as multiscale modelling, model order reduction and multiobjective optimiza-tion techniques can play an important role to unravel the design of more sophisticated and efficient acoustic metamaterials. The aim of this project is to set up the basis for the future development of sophisticated numerical tools for the design of acoustic met-amaterials. In this sense, the results presented here can be regarded as examples to better understand the concept of acoustic metamaterials and considered a review of the currently existing models and numerical techniques available for studying them.

Book Dynamic Equivalent Modeling of Acoustic Metamaterials

Download or read book Dynamic Equivalent Modeling of Acoustic Metamaterials written by Nansha Gao and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-10-17 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book derives physical models from basic principles, studies the effect of equivalent models on the dynamic characteristics of phononic crystals and acoustic metamaterials, and analyzes the physical mechanisms behind vibration and noise reduction. It first summarizes the research status of vibration and noise reduction, and research progress in phononic crystals and acoustic metamaterials. Based on this, one-dimensional periodic beam, two-dimensional thin plate with circular hole, and corresponding gradient structures are introduced, and their dynamic characteristics are discussed in detail. Therefore, different equivalent methods for different models are proposed through theoretical analysis, modal analysis and transmission rate analysis. Finally, a Helmholtz-type acoustic metamaterial, i.e. a multi-layer slotted tube acoustic metamaterial, is studied. Aiming at the low-frequency band gap of this model, a theoretical model for solving the inverse problem of acousto-electric analogue equivalent is proposed, and the effect of structural parameters on the low-frequency band gap is studied using this equivalent model. This book closely revolves around how to conduct equivalent research on artificially fabricated periodic structures. The methods and conclusions presented in this book provide a new theoretical basis for the application of artificial woven periodic structures in the field of low-frequency vibration reduction and noise reduction and are also an innovation in the discipline of vibration and noise control. This book is suitable for undergraduate students, graduate students and teachers in vibration and noise majors in universities, and can also provide references for engineering and technical personnel in related fields.

Book New Acoustics Based on Metamaterials

Download or read book New Acoustics Based on Metamaterials written by Woon Siong Gan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-10 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the acoustical metamaterials’ capability to manipulate the direction of sound propagation in solids which in turn control the scattering, diffraction and refraction, the three basic mechanisms of sound propagation in solids. This gives rise to several novel theories and applications and hence the name new acoustics. As an introduction, the book mentions that symmetry of acoustic fields is the theoretical framework of acoustical metamaterials. This is then followed by describing that acoustical metamaterials began with locally resonant sonic materials which ushered in the concept of negative acoustic parameters such as mass density and bulk modulus. This complies with form invariance of the acoustic equation of motion which again exemplifies the symmetry property of acoustic fields.

Book Graded Elastic Metamaterials for Energy Harvesting

Download or read book Graded Elastic Metamaterials for Energy Harvesting written by Jacopo Maria De Ponti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a complete framework for energy harvesting technologies based on graded elastic metamaterials. First, it provides a comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art research on metamaterials for energy harvesting and then explores the theoretical wave mechanics framework, going from inhomogeneous media to graded elastic metamaterials. The framework can be used to thoroughly analyse wave propagation phenomena in beams, plates, and half-spaces and to investigate the effect of local resonance on creating bandgaps or wave mode conversions. All these concepts converge together with piezoelectric materials in the study and design of piezo-augmented arrays of resonators. The energy harvesting performances of the graded metamaterials are then compared to conventional solutions, in order to quantify their advantages for applications.

Book Sound Topology  Duality  Coherence and Wave Mixing

Download or read book Sound Topology Duality Coherence and Wave Mixing written by Pierre Deymier and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-12 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an essential introduction to the notions of sound wave topology, duality, coherence and wave-mixing, which constitute the emerging new science of sound. It includes general principles and specific examples that illuminate new non-conventional forms of sound (sound topology), unconventional quantum-like behavior of phonons (duality), radical linear and nonlinear phenomena associated with loss and its control (coherence), and exquisite effects that emerge from the interaction of sound with other physical and biological waves (wave mixing). The book provides the reader with the foundations needed to master these complex notions through simple yet meaningful examples. General principles for unraveling and describing the topology of acoustic wave functions in the space of their Eigen values are presented. These principles are then applied to uncover intrinsic and extrinsic approaches to achieving non-conventional topologies by breaking the time reversal symmetry of acoustic waves. Symmetry breaking can impart topological immunity to wave degradation from imperfection scattering and catalyze controlled coherence. In the intrinsic case and the phonon representation of acoustic waves, the self-interaction/interference of a wave through its supporting medium exposes the notion of duality in the quantum statistics (i.e. boson vs. fermion characterized by the symmetry of multiple particle states) and how the quantum analogue behaviors of sound can be exploited in the form of novel sound-based information transfer and processing devices. By considering media that mix different types of waves, the book addresses the interaction of sound with other physical and biological waves but also brings to light examples of extrinsic processes that can lead to symmetry breaking. The coherent conversion of sound into other types of waves as well as the sound-induced non-conventional topology of elastic, electronic, spin and biological waves are presented in the case of media exhibiting elasto-electronic, photo-elastic, magneto-elastic effects and biological mechano-transduction.

Book Topological States in Ordered and Disordered Mechanical Metamaterial

Download or read book Topological States in Ordered and Disordered Mechanical Metamaterial written by Xiaotian Shi and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topological mechanical metamaterials have emerged as an active research field with the rapid development of topological phases in condensed matter physics. By incorporating robust topological features and highly customizable nature, topological mechanical metamaterials offer unprecedented power to manipulate acoustic and elastic waves and show great potential in a variety of engineering applications, such as low-loss devices, high-precision sensors, and quantum information processing. In this dissertation, we explore the topological phases in ordered three-dimensional (3D) mechanical metamaterials and investigate the disorder induced topological phase transition in both one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) mechanical metamaterials. First, we design an elastic structure made of beam elements with an AA−stacked honeycomb lattice. The chiral interlayer couplings induce Weyl points with opposite topological charges (+̲1) in the bulk bands. We also demonstrate the elastic Fermi arcs, and topologically protected surface states through full-scale numerical simulations. Then, we proposed a chiral phononic crystal based on a 3D Lieb lattice that carries spin−1 Weyl points of topological charge +̲2. We observe special straight-type acoustic Fermi arcs and numerically demonstrate dual-band topologically protected and collimated surface waves in the spin-1 Weyl structure. Next, we investigate the interplay between topology and disorder in a 1D spring-mass chain. Three types of topological invariants defined in real space are implemented to characterize the topological properties in disordered 1D mechanical setups. Our findings reveal that disorder can both destroy and establish a topological state, depending on the type and strength of the disorder. Finally, we extend the disorder study to 2D mechanical systems and demonstrate disorder induced topological phase transition in both discrete and continuous quantum spin Hall mechanical systems.

Book Numerical Tools for Computational Design of Acoustic Metamaterials

Download or read book Numerical Tools for Computational Design of Acoustic Metamaterials written by David Roca Cazorla and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of metamaterials as artificially engineered structures designed to obtain specific material properties, typically unachievable in naturally occurring materials, has captured the attention of the scientific and industrial communities. Among the broad range of applications for such kind of materials, in the field of acoustics, the possibility of creating materials capable of efficiently attenuating noise in target frequency ranges is of utmost importance for a lot of industrial areas. In this context, the so-called locally resonant acoustic metamaterials (LRAMs) can play an important role, as their internal topology can be designed to exhibit huge levels of attenuation in specific frequency regions by taking advantage of internal resonance modes. With a proper, optimized topological design, LRAMs can be used, for instance, to build lightweight and thin noise insulation panels that operate in a low-frequency regime, where standard solutions for effectively attenuating the noise sources require dense and thick materials. Given the importance of the topological structure in obtaining the desired properties in acoustic metamaterials, the use of novel numerical techniques can be exploited to cre-ate a set of computational tools aimed at the analysis and design of optimized solutions. These are based on three fundamental pillars: (1) the multiscale homogenization of complex material structures in the microscale to get a set of effective properties capa-ble of describing the material behavior in the macroscale, (2) the model-order reduc-tion techniques, which are used to decrease the computational cost of heavy computa-tions while still maintaining a sufficient degree of accuracy, and (3) the topology optimi-zation methods that can be employed to obtain optimal configurations with a given set of constraints and a target material behavior. This set of computational tools can be applied to design acoustic metamaterials that are both efficient and practical, i.e. they behave according to their design specifications and can be produced easily, for in-stance, making use of novel additive manufacturing techniques.

Book Acoustic Waves in Periodic Structures  Metamaterials  and Porous Media

Download or read book Acoustic Waves in Periodic Structures Metamaterials and Porous Media written by Noé Jiménez and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-03 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delivers a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of practical applications of metamaterials, structured media, and conventional porous materials. With increasing levels of urbanization, a growing demand for motorized transport, and inefficient urban planning, environmental noise exposure is rapidly becoming a pressing societal and health concern. Phononic and sonic crystals, acoustic metamaterials, and metasurfaces can revolutionize noise and vibration control and, in many cases, replace traditional porous materials for these applications. In this collection of contributed chapters, a group of international researchers reviews the essentials of acoustic wave propagation in metamaterials and porous absorbers with viscothermal losses, as well as the most recent advances in the design of acoustic metamaterial absorbers. The book features a detailed theoretical introduction describing commonly used modelling techniques such as plane wave expansion, multiple scattering theory, and the transfer matrix method. The following chapters give a detailed consideration of acoustic wave propagation in viscothermal fluids and porous media, and the extension of this theory to non-local models for fluid saturated metamaterials, along with a description of the relevant numerical methods. Finally, the book reviews a range of practical industrial applications, making it especially attractive as a white book targeted at the building, automotive, and aeronautic industries.
