Section Title:
Phononics and Metamaterials
Section Info:
This course introduces fundamental concepts of acoustic and elastic wave propagation in metamaterials and periodic media. Theoretical, computational, and experimental approaches for analyzing wave propagation in such media will be discussed, as well as fabrication methods and engineering applications. Topics may include: elastodynamics of lattice materials, Bloch-Floquet theorem and Brillouin zones, acoustic/elastic band gap materials, damped and nonlinear phononic materials, transformation-based methods, and active systems. prerequisites: (1) TAM 541, and (2) ONE of the following: TAM 551, TAM 413, TAM 518, TAM 514, AE 522, or permission from instructor.
