Off-centered Double-slit Metamaterial for Elastic Wave Polarization Anomaly.

ABSTRACT: The polarization anomaly refers to the polarization transition from longitudinal to shear modes along an equi-frequency contour of the same branch, which occurs only in some anisotropic elastic media, but the lack of natural materials exhibiting desired anisotropy makes its utilization impossible for potential novel applications. In this paper, we present a unique, non-resonant type elastic metamaterial made of off-centered, double-slit unit cells. We show that its wave polarization characteristics that determine the desired anomalous polarization for a certain application are tailorable. As an application, a mode converting wedge that transforms pure longitudinal into pure shear modes is designed by the proposed metamaterial. The physics involved in the mode conversion is investigated by simulations and experiments.

Designing 3D Digital Metamaterial for Elastic Waves: From Elastic Wave Polarizer to Vibration Control.

Project description:Elastic wave polarizers, which can filter out linearly polarized elastic waves from hybrid elastic waves, remain a challenge since elastic waves contain both transverse and longitudinal natures. Here, a tunable, digital, locally resonant metamaterial inspired by abacus is proposed, which consists of 3D-printed octahedral frames and built-in electromagnets. By controlling current in the electromagnets, each unit cell exhibits three digital modes, where the elastic waves have different characteristics of propagation under each mode. A variety of waveguides can be formed by a combination of the three modes and desired polarization can be further filtered out from hybrid elastic waves in a tunable manner. The underlying mechanism of these polarizer-like characteristics is investigated through a combination of theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and experimental testing. This study provides a means of filtering out the desired wave from hybrid elastic waves, and offers promise for vibration control of particle distribution and flexible structure.

Evanescent wave in multiple slit diffraction and n-array antennas in metamaterial using Cesaro convergence.

Project description:In this paper, we study Multiple slit diffraction and n- array linear antennae in negative refractive index material. We show that the evanescent wave plays a vital role in the near-field term. The evanescent wave grows significantly, unlike in conventional materials, and satisfies a novel kind of convergence known as Cesàro convergence. We calculate the intensity of multiple slits and the antenna's amplification factor (AF) in terms of the Riemann zeta function. We further demonstrate that the Riemann zeta function gives rise to additional nulls. We deduce that all the diffraction scenarios in which the traveling wave satisfies the geometric series in the medium of the positive refractive index will enhance the evanescent wave, which satisfies Cesàro convergence in the medium of the negative refractive index.

Extremely low frequency wave localization via elastic foundation induced metamaterial with a spiral cavity.

Project description:We proposed a metamaterial which exhibits elastic wave localization at extremely low frequencies. First, we opened an extremely low bandgap via elastic foundations. Subsequently, we investigated wave localization by imposing normal defect, which is widely used to capture waves in conventional wave localization systems. However, there were limitations: wave localization was not achieved when a weak bandgap is generated, and the operating frequency of localization is still in the upper part of the bandgap. To overcome wave localization via the normal defect, we proposed a novel metamaterial with a spiral cavity which can tune the resonating frequency depending on the length of the spiral path. By imposing on the spiral cavity inside the elastic foundation-induced metamaterial, we can shift the resonating frequency of the cavity down. Finally, we carried out wave simulations, not only to support the previous eigenfrequency study for the supercell, but also to verify that the finite-size metamaterial can also achieve wave localization at the extremely low frequencies. Through wave simulations, we could observe wave localization even at 77.3 Hz, which is definitely the lower part of the extremely low bandgap.

Wave polarization and dynamic degeneracy in a chiral elastic lattice.

Project description:This paper addresses fundamental questions arising in the theory of Bloch-Floquet waves in chiral elastic lattice systems. This area has received a significant attention in the context of 'topologically protected' waveforms. Although practical applications of chiral elastic lattices are widely appreciated, especially in problems of controlling low-frequency vibrations, wave polarization and filtering, the fundamental questions of the relationship of these lattices to classical waveforms associated with longitudinal and shear waves retain a substantial scope for further development. The notion of chirality is introduced into the systematic analysis of dispersive elastic waves in a doubly-periodic lattice. Important quantitative characteristics of the dynamic response of the lattice, such as lattice flux and lattice circulation, are used in the analysis along with the novel concept of 'vortex waveforms' that characterize the dynamic response of the chiral system. We note that the continuum concepts of pressure and shear waves do not apply for waves in a lattice, especially in the case when the wavelength is comparable with the size of the elementary cell of the periodic structure. Special critical regimes are highlighted when vortex waveforms become dominant. Analytical findings are accompanied by illustrative numerical simulations.

Angular- and Polarization-insensitive Ultrathin Double-layered Metamaterial Absorber for Ultra-wideband Application.

Project description:We proposed an ultra-thin polarization-insensitive metamaterial absorber (MMA) for ultra-wideband and wide incident angle operation. The MMA is composed of double-layer symmetric split rings (SSRs) connected with two orthogonally-arranged bars and the ground metallic plane separated by two identical substrates. Multiple metallic layers and scalabilities are employed to provide broadband absorptivity based on the cooperated mechanisms of the Ohmic loss and the Fabry-Perot interference. To further broaden the absorption bandwidth, four lumped resistors are loaded with the SSRs on the top metallic layer. By this means, an ultra-wideband absorbance is achieved nearly in 4~22 GHz, two gentle slope belts with absorptivity over 60% and 80% in 4~12 GHz and 12~22 GHz, respectively. The whole structure is with an ultrathin thickness of 2.4 mm, which is 0.032λlow and 0.176λhigh corresponds to the lowest and highest absorption frequency separately. Meanwhile, the symmetric structure enables the MMA of satisfactory stability for polarization and wide incident angles. Numerical and experimental results prove the capability of the proposed MMA for ultra-wideband absorbance.

Add-on unidirectional elastic metamaterial plate cloak.

Project description:Metamaterial cloaks control the propagation of waves to make an object invisible or insensible. To manipulate elastic waves in space, a metamaterial cloak is typically embedded in a base system that includes or surrounds a target object. The embedding is undesirable because it structurally weakens or permanently alters the base system. In this study, we propose a new add-on metamaterial elastic cloak that can be placed over and mechanically coupled with a base structure without embedding. We designed an add-on type annular metamaterial plate cloak through conformal mapping, fabricated it and performed cloaking experiments in a thin-plate with a hole. Experiments were performed in a thin plate by using the lowest symmetric Lamb wave centered at 100 kHz. As a means to check the cloaking performance of the add-on elastic plate cloak, possibly as a temporary stress reliever or a so-called "stress bandage", the degree of stress concentration mitigation and the recovery from the perturbed wave field due to a hole were investigated.

Bistable metamaterial for switching and cascading elastic vibrations.

Project description:The realization of acoustic devices analogous to electronic systems, like diodes, transistors, and logic elements, suggests the potential use of elastic vibrations (i.e., phonons) in information processing, for example, in advanced computational systems, smart actuators, and programmable materials. Previous experimental realizations of acoustic diodes and mechanical switches have used nonlinearities to break transmission symmetry. However, existing solutions require operation at different frequencies or involve signal conversion in the electronic or optical domains. Here, we show an experimental realization of a phononic transistor-like device using geometric nonlinearities to switch and amplify elastic vibrations, via magnetic coupling, operating at a single frequency. By cascading this device in a tunable mechanical circuit board, we realize the complete set of mechanical logic elements and interconnect selected ones to execute simple calculations.

Double defects-induced elastic wave coupling and energy localization in a phononic crystal.

Project description:This study aims to investigate elastic wave localization that leverages defect band splitting in a phononic crystal with double defects through in-depth analysis of comparison of numerical and experimental results. When more than one defect is created inside a phononic crystal, these defects can interact with each other, resulting in a distinctive physical phenomenon from a single defect case: defect band splitting. For a phononic crystal consisting of circular-hole type unit cells in a thin aluminum plate, under A0 (the lowest antisymmetric) Lamb waves, both numerical simulations and experiments successfully confirm the defect band splitting phenomenon via frequency response functions for the out-of-plane displacement calculated/measured at the double defects within a finite distance. Furthermore, experimental visualization of in-phase and out-of-phase defect mode shapes at each frequency of the split defect bands is achieved and found to be in excellent agreement with the simulated results. Different inter-distance combinations of the double defects reveal that the degree of the defect band splitting decreases with the increasing distance due to weaker coupling between the defects. This work may shed light on engineering applications of a multiple-defect-introduced phononic crystal, including broadband energy harvesting, frequency detectors, and elastic wireless power transfer.

Mirror-symmetric double-negative metamaterial resonator with polarization insensitivity and tunable sandwiched structure for multiband wireless communications.

Project description:This paper presents a novel Double-negative (DNG) metamaterial (MM) resonator with a mirror-symmetric configuration, designed to exhibit multiband resonances in the S, C, and X bands. The resonator is fabricated using advanced processing techniques on a Rogers 5880 substrate and features electrodeposited copper. It consists of four equal regions, each containing interconnected split-ring resonators that are connected through a cross-shaped structure to ensure mirror symmetry. The simulation results demonstrate six resonance points at frequencies of 2.45 GHz, 4.27 GHz, 6.86 GHz, 8.98 GHz, 10.69 GHz, and 11.65 GHz. These resonances are characterized by near-zero/negative permeability, negative permittivity, refractive index, and impedance. Furthermore, the cross-polarization effect of incident waves is investigated. Additionally, the potential for tunability of resonance frequencies is explored through a sandwiched configuration of the MM resonator, achieved by modifying the cover of the resonating patch. Moreover, the equivalent circuit model of the proposed MM resonator is in good agreement with practical measurements, validating the simulation results. The new tuning method for MM resonators holds the promise for future sensing applications and wireless communications.

Extreme stiffness hyperbolic elastic metamaterial for total transmission subwavelength imaging.

Project description:Subwavelength imaging by metamaterials and extended work to pursue total transmission has been successfully demonstrated with electromagnetic and acoustic waves very recently. However, no elastic counterpart has been reported because earlier attempts suffer from considerable loss. Here, for the first time, we realize an elastic hyperbolic metamaterial lens and experimentally show total transmission subwavelength imaging with measured wave field inside the metamaterial lens. The main idea is to compensate for the decreased impedance in the perforated elastic metamaterial by utilizing extreme stiffness, which has not been independently actualized in a continuum elastic medium so far. The fabricated elastic lens is capable of directly transferring subwavelength information from the input to the output boundary. In the experiment, this intriguing phenomenon is confirmed by scanning the elastic structures inside the lens with laser scanning vibrometer. The proposed elastic metamaterial lens will bring forth significant guidelines for ultrasonic imaging techniques.
