Acoustic metamaterials (AMs), which are materials composed of subwavelength periodic
artificial structures with specific designs, have drawn significant research attention. This is …

This paper extends previous work of Zhang and Pan [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 133 (4), 2082–
2096 (2013)] on sound scattering and absorption by an underwater coated plate with a …

We report an anomalous transmission enhancement of acoustic waves through a hybrid
grating. The fundamental physics behind this phenomenon can be captured well by the …

We study the acoustic-induced interactions between a pair of identical elastic plates
patterned with periodical structures. Remarkable mutual forces, both repulsions and …

We study theoretically subwavelength physical phenomena, such as resonant transmission
and broadband sound shielding for Lamb waves propagating in an acoustic metamaterial …

An underwater structure is proposed for simultaneous detection and stealth purposes by
embedding periodic signal conditioning plates (SCPs) at the interface of two elastic coatings …

Recently, the mode conversion of elastic waves has attracted much attention, due to its
scientific significance and potential applications. The applications based on the high mode …

Underwater sound isolation has been a long-standing fundamental issue in industry and
military fields. Starting from a simple theoretical model, here an air-sealed meta-screen is …

The paper deals with guided wave propagation and diffraction in an elastic plate with two
and more parallel grooves (notches). It is a continuation of the preceding studies of a single …

We report the practical realization of phononic membrane with sub-wavelength apertures,
inducing a broadband ultrasonic opacity. The ultrasonic experiments confirm the existence …
