Abstract The Acoustic Black Hole (ABH) is a technique for passive vibration control that was
recently developed within the Structural Dynamics and Vibroacoustics communities. From a …

The introduction of engineered resonance phenomena on surfaces has opened a new
frontier in surface science and technology. Pillared phononic crystals, metamaterials, and …

In the past decades, many mechanical metamaterials with uncommon static properties have
been reported. On the other hand, mechanical metamaterials possessing extraordinary …

Phononic crystals and acoustic metamaterials are periodic structures whose effective
properties can be tailored at will to achieve extreme control on wave propagation. Their …

We explore a phononic crystal Luneburg lens through design, fabrication, and analysis for
omnidirectional elastic wave focusing and enhanced energy harvesting both numerically …

We explore the enhancement of structure-borne elastic wave energy harvesting, both
numerically and experimentally, by exploiting a Gradient-Index Phononic Crystal Lens …

Based on the form‐invariance of Maxwell's equations under coordinate transformations,
mathematically smooth deformation of space can be physically equivalent to …

Although recent advances have made it possible to manipulate electromagnetic and
acoustic wavefronts with sub-wavelength metasurface slabs, the design of elastodynamic …

Steering flexural waves in thin plates benefits several applications, including vibration
energy harvesting and micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). This study proposes a …

Vibration damping in a thin structure can be effectively achieved by using an acoustic black
hole (ABH), which is a straight wedge-shaped structure with power-law profile. However, it is …
