Method for retrieving effective properties of locally resonant acoustic metamaterials
نویسندگان
چکیده
Acoustic metamaterials can be described by effective material properties such as mass density and modulus. We have developed a method to extract these effective properties from reflection and transmission coefficients, which can be measured experimentally. The dependency of effective properties on the positions of the boundaries of the acoustic metamaterial is discussed, and a proper procedure to determine the boundaries is presented. This retrieval method is used to analyze various acoustic metamaterials, and metamaterials with negative effective properties are reported.

Effective Dynamic Properties and Multi-Resonant Design of Acoustic Metamaterials
In the study, a retrieval approach is extended to determine the effective dynamic properties of a finite multilayered acoustic metamaterial based on the theoretical reflection and transmission analysis. The accuracy of the method is verified through a comparison of wave dispersion curve predictions from the homogeneous effective medium and the exact solution. A multiresonant design is then sugg...

The need to design blast resistant civilian structures has arisen due to aggressor attacks on many civilian structures around the world. Achieving vibration and wave attenuation with locally resonant metamaterials has attracted a great deal of consideration due to their frequency dependent negative effective mass density. In this paper, metaconcrete, a new material with exceptional properties i...
متن کاملHarnessing buckling to design tunable locally resonant acoustic metamaterials.
We report a new class of tunable and switchable acoustic metamaterials comprising resonating units dispersed into an elastic matrix. Each resonator consists of a metallic core connected to the elastomeric matrix through elastic beams, whose buckling is intentionally exploited as a novel and effective approach to control the propagation of elastic waves. We first use numerical analysis to show t...

In this paper, an elastic metamaterial with multiple dissipative resonators is presented for broadband wave mitigation by properly utilizing interactions from resonant motions and viscoelastic effects of the constitutive material. The working mechanism of the metamaterial to suppress broadband waves is clearly revealed in a dissipative mass-in-mass lattice system through both negative effective...
متن کاملSuper-resolution imaging by resonant tunneling in anisotropic acoustic metamaterials.
The resonant tunneling effects that could result in complete transmission of evanescent waves are examined in acoustic metamaterials of anisotropic effective mass. The tunneling conditions are first derived for the metamaterials composed of classical mass-in-mass structures. It is found that the tunneling transmission occurs when the total length of metamaterials is an integral number of half-w...
