By A. B. Movchan, M. Brun, N. V. Movchan (auth.), Francesco Romeo, Massimo Ruzzene (eds.)

Waves and illness modes in constructions media.- Piezoelectric superlattices and shunted periodic arrays as tunable periodic buildings and metamaterials.- Topology optimization.- Map-based techniques for periodic structures.- Methodologies for nonlinear periodic media.​

The contributions during this quantity current either the theoretical historical past and an outline of the state-of-the paintings in wave propagation in linear and nonlinear periodic media in a constant layout. They mix the cloth issued from various engineering functions, spanning quite a lot of size scale, characterised via buildings and fabrics, either man-made and of course happening, that includes geometry, micro-structural and/or fabrics homes that change periodically in area, together with periodically stiffened plates, shells and beam-like in addition to bladed disc assemblies, phononic metamaterials, photonic crystals and ordered granular media. besides linear versions and purposes, analytical methodologies for studying and exploiting advanced dynamical phenomena bobbing up in nonlinear periodic structures also are presented.​

Lie Groups and Algebras with Applications to Physics, Geometry, and Mechanics

This ebook is meant as an introductory textual content just about Lie teams and algebras and their position in a number of fields of arithmetic and physics. it truly is written through and for researchers who're basically analysts or physicists, no longer algebraists or geometers. now not that we have got eschewed the algebraic and geo­ metric advancements.

Dimensional Analysis. Practical Guides in Chemical Engineering

Functional courses in Chemical Engineering are a cluster of brief texts that every offers a centred introductory view on a unmarried topic. the complete library spans the most issues within the chemical strategy industries that engineering pros require a simple realizing of. they're 'pocket courses' that the pro engineer can simply hold with them or entry electronically whereas operating.

Linear algebra Problem Book

Can one research linear algebra exclusively by means of fixing difficulties? Paul Halmos thinks so, and you'll too when you learn this booklet. The Linear Algebra challenge ebook is a perfect textual content for a direction in linear algebra. It takes the scholar step-by-step from the fundamental axioms of a box in the course of the suggestion of vector areas, directly to complex techniques reminiscent of internal product areas and normality.

2003). In fact, many proposed concepts for acoustic metamaterials consider configurations that derive their unique properties from resonators contained within each unit cell. Typical designs are characterized by inclusions with a phase velocity much lower than that of the matrix (Kushwaha and Djafari-Rouhani, 1998). This allows producing attenuation bands at frequencies which are unrelated to scattering phenomena (Bragg scattering) which occur at wavelengths of the order of the unit cell size.

One of the outstanding challenges in metamaterial development is the ability to tune their properties in response to changing operating conditions. , 2003), which operate on the basis of strong changes in material properties around a pre-defined tuning frequency. One of the concepts illustrated in this chapter involves the use of piezoelectric 34 L. Airoldi, M. Senesi and M. Ruzzene materials for the conversion of elastic into electrical energy, and the use of shunting circuits to generate an equivalent resonant system in parallel to the mechanical waveguide.

Airoldi, M. Senesi and M. Ruzzene (see Figures 13). The behavior of the dispersion properties around the frequency of internal resonance is typical of periodic systems with internal resonating properties as discussed in the introduction to this chapter. Of note is the fact that the case of open circuits does not lead to an absolute zero for the attenuation constant, which may be affected by other sources of dissipation which are inevitably present in an experimental setup. 4 Equivalent properties: a metamaterial perspective The analysis presented in the previous sections can be further elaborated by seeking for analytical expressions which provide insight in the behavior of the system when undergoing internal resonance through the shunting circuits.
