We demonstrate the presence of Dirac cones in the dispersion relation of acoustic waves propagating on the surface of a plate of methyl methacrylate containing a honeycomb lattice of cylindrical boreholes. This structure ...
This work presents a comprehensive study of the cloak for bending waves theoretically proposed by Farhat et al. [see Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 024301 (2009)] and later on experimentally realized by Stenger et al. [see Phys. ...
We show that specially designed two-dimensional arrangements of full elastic cylinders embedded in a nonviscous fluid or gas define ( in the homogenization limit) a new class of acoustic metamaterials characterized by a ...
We analyze the properties of acoustic and electromagnetic metamaterials with anisotropic constitutive parameters.
Particularly, we analyze the so-called Radial Wave Crystals, which are radially periodic structures verifying ...

A structured cylindrical scatterer with low-frequency resonances in both the effective bulk modulus and the dynamical mass density is designed and characterized. The proposed scattering unit is made of a rigid cylinder ...
An elastic analog of graphene is introduced and analyzed. The system consists of a honeycomb arrangement of spring-mass resonators attached to a thin elastic layer, and the propagation properties of flexural waves along ...

This letter demonstrates the mechanical tuning of modes confined in two-dimensional acoustic cavities based on anisotropic metafluids. The employed metafluids have been designed with effective parameters such that the ...
The absorption of electromagnetic waves by a thin dielectric slab backed by a metasurface has been comprehensively studied and discussed at microwave frequencies. The metasurface consists of a metallic plate decorated with ...

A multiple-scattering theory is applied to study the homogenization of clusters of elastic cylinders distributed in a isotropic lattice and embedded in a viscous fluid. Asymptotic relations are derived and employed to ...
Anisotropic and inhomogeneous metamaterial shells are studied in order to exploit all their resonant mode richness. These multilayer structures are based on a cylindrical distribution of radially dependent constitutive ...
[EN] Topological phases have recently been realized in bosonic systems. The associated boundary modes between regions of distinct topology have been used to demonstrate robust waveguiding, protected from defects by the ...
