Soft phononic crystals with deformation-independent band gaps
Soft phononic crystals have the advantages over their stiff counterparts of being flexible and reconfigurable. Normally, the band gaps of soft phononic crystals will be modified after deformation due to both geometric and constitutive nonlinearity. Indeed these are important properties that can be exploited to tune the dynamic properties of the material. However, in some instances, it may be th...
متن کامل3-D phononic crystals with ultra-wide band gaps
In this paper gradient based topology optimization (TO) is used to discover 3-D phononic structures that exhibit ultra-wide normalized all-angle all-mode band gaps. The challenging computational task of repeated 3-D phononic band-structure evaluations is accomplished by a combination of a fast mixed variational eigenvalue solver and distributed Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) parallel computation...
متن کاملInvestigation tow of negative refraction characters in the three different 2D phononic crystals
In this paper, a two-dimensional phononic crystal comprising of steel rod in water is investigated. Three cross- sections for this rod are considered using finite element method (EFM). We plot the equifrequency surface of the first band, because of equifrequency surface convex around the edge of the first Brillouin Zone, we guess the negative effective phononic mass and so negative refraction. ...
متن کاملPolarization studies in multiply scattering chiral media
Emile Hoskinson Department of Physics & Astronomy University of British Columbia Vancouver, BC, Canada V6T 1Z1 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The interactions of polarized light with an optically active (chiral), multiply scattering medium are investigated using a relatively simple experimental system incorporating polarization modulation and synchronous detection techniques. The pola...
متن کاملNegative Group Velocity
In more detail, consider a classical model of matter in which spectral lines are associated with oscillators. In particular, consider a gas of atoms with two closely spaced spectral lines of angular frequencies ω1,2 = ω0 ± Δ/2, where Δ ω0. Each line has the same damping constant (and spectral width) γ. Ordinarily, the gas would exhibit strong absorption of light in the vicinity of the spectral ...
