Mechanical metamaterials enable the creation of structural materials with unprecedented
mechanical properties. However, thus far, research on mechanical metamaterials has …

Nanoscale spacecrafts have shed light on an audacious but promising vision for interstellar
travel to neighboring planets beyond the solar system. The nanocrafts can be accelerated to …

Mechanical metamaterials, also known as architected materials, are rationally designed
composites, aiming at elastic behaviors and effective mechanical properties beyond ('meta') …

This paper explores the use of a chiral metamaterial inerter nonlinear energy sink (CINES)
for suppressing torsional vibrations in a rotor system. The compress-torsion coupling effect …

Ultra‐conductive heat transport showcases significant potentials in popular thermal
managements with convection, phase change, and heat source. However, it is captivated …

We compare the phonon band structures and chiral phonon eigenmodes of a recently
experimentally realized three-dimensional (3D) cubic chiral metamaterial architecture to …

An elastic cloak is a coating material that can be applied to an arbitrary inclusion to make it
indistinguishable from the background medium. Cloaking against elastic disturbances, in …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) chiral mechanical metamaterials enable behaviors not
accessible in ordinary materials. In particular, a coupling between displacements and …

Abstract The three-dimensional (3D) chiral mechanical metamaterials were found to exhibit
unique compression-twisting coupling effect. The metamaterial will twist in addition to axial …

The properties of metamaterials depend on not only their constituents but also the intrinsic
microstructures. Phononic crystals, as one type of metamaterials whose attributes …
