The maximum value of band-gap can be obtained when the filling fraction is in the middle value. It is also found that the symmetry of the scatterers strongly influences the band-gaps. For RHL＞1, the width of the band-gap decreases as RHL increases. On the contrary, the width of the band-gap increases with the increase of RHL when RHL is smaller than 1.展开更多

The parameters of the models are given in a reasonable way based on the physical insight into the band gap mechanism. Both the lumped-mass methods and our models are used in the study of the influences of structural and the material parameters on frequencies on both edges of the lowest gaps in the ternary locally resonant phononic crystals. The analytical evaluations with our models and the theoretical predictions with the lumped-mass method are in good agreement with each other. The newly proposed heuristic models are helpful for a better understanding of the locally resonant band gap mechanism, as well as more accurate evaluation of the band edge frequencies.展开更多

Compared with the work of C. Goffaux and J. Sánchez-Dehesa （Phys. Rev. B 67 14 4301（2003））, it is shown that there exists an error of about 50% in their calculated results of the band structure, and one band is missing in their results. Moreover, the in-plane modes shown in their paper are improper, which results in the wrong conclusion on the mechanism of the ternary locally resonant phononic crystals. Based on the lumped-mass method and better description of the vibration modes according to the band gaps, the locally resonant mechanism in forming the subfrequency gaps is thoroughly analysed. The rule used to judge whether a resonant mode in the phononic crystals can result in a corresponding subfrequency gap is also verified in this ternary case.展开更多

Analytical and numerical examples are introduced to emphasize the influence of temperature on the piezoelectric phononic crystals. It was observed that the transmission spectrum of a one-dimensional phononic crystal containing a piezoelectric material（0.7 PMN-0.3 PT） can be changed drastically by an increase in temperature.The resonant peak can be shifted toward high or low frequencies by an increase or decrease in temperature, respectively.Therefore, we deduced that temperature can exhibit a large tuning in the phononic band gaps and in the local resonant frequencies depending on the presence of a piezoelectric material. Such result can enhance the harvesting energy from piezoelectric materials, especially those that are confined in a phononic crystal.展开更多

The bandgap characteristics of flexural wave in phononic crystals are studied by establishing the governing equations of the model. The results from models show that with the change of the mass ratio of defective atoms to normal atoms, the bandgap of the flexural wave produced by Bragg scattering shows a certain rule. When the local resonant bandgap and Bragg scattering bandgap are close to each other, the two bandgaps will be coupled to form a wider flexural wave bandgap. The effect of axial strain on bending wave propagation is only the shift of bandgap position. The effect of material damping on the propagation of a bending wave is only energy dissipation at high frequency. In addition, we use finite element simulation to calculate the bandgap of flexural wave in phononic crystals with mass defects, and the results are consistent with lattice chain model. This shows that lattice chain model can effectively guide the bandgap design of phononic crystals. This comprehensive study may help to elucidate the rule of bandgap generation of flexural wave in one-dimensional phononic crystals.展开更多

The supercell technique is applied. By expanding the displacement field and the material constants （mass density and elastic stiffness） in periodic wavelets, the explicit formulations of an eigenvalue problem for the plane harmonic bulk waves in such a phononic structure are derived. The point and line defect states in solid-liquid and solid-solid systems are calculated. Comparisons of the present results with those measured experimentally or those from the plane wave expansion method show that the present method can yield accurate results with faster convergence and less computing time.展开更多

The localization of wave propagation due to random disorder is discussed by introducing the concept of the localization factor that is calculated by the plane-wave-based transfer-matrix method. By treating the quasi-periodicity as the deviation from the periodicity in a special way, two kinds of quasi phononic crystal that has quasi-periodicity （Fibonacci sequence） in one direction and translational symmetry in the other direction are considered and the band structures are characterized by using localization factors. The results show that the localization factor is an effective parameter in characterizing the band gaps of two-dimensional perfect, randomly disordered and quasi-periodic phononic crystals. Band structures of the phononic crystals can be tuned by different random disorder or changing quasi-periodic parameters. The quasi phononic crystals exhibit more band gaps with narrower width than the ordered and randomly disordered systems.展开更多

The method expresses the scattered fields in a unit cell as the cylindrical wave expansions and imposes the Bloch condition on the boundary of the unit cell. The Dirichlet-to-Neumann （DtN） map is applied to obtain a linear eigenvalue equation, from which the Bloch wave vectors along the irreducible Brillouin zone are calculated for a given frequency. Compared with other methods, the present method is memory-saving and time-saving. It can yield accurate results with fast convergence for various material combinations including those with large acoustic mismatch without extra computational cost. The method is also efficient for mixed fluid-solid systems because it considers the different wave modes in the fluid and solid as well as the proper fluid-solid interface condition.展开更多

This combined analysis yields phase constant surfaces, which predict the location and the extension of band gaps, as well as the directions and the regions of wave propagation at assigned frequencies. The predictions are validated by computation and experimental analysis of the harmonic responses of a finite structure with 11 × 11 unit cells. The flexural wave is localized at the point of excitation in band gaps, while the directional behaviour occurs at particular frequencies in pass bands. These studies provide guidelines to designing periodic structures for vibration attenuation.展开更多

For different cases of disorder, the transmission coefficients are calculated. The influences of disorders on band gaps are investigated. The results show that the disorder in the piezoelectric phononic crystals has more significant influences on the band gap in the low frequency regions than in the high frequency ones. The relation between the width of band gap and the direction of position disorder is also discussed. When the position disorder is along the direction perpendicular to the wave transmission, the piezoelectric phononic crystals have wider band gaps at low frequency regions than the case of position disorder being along the wave transmission direction. It can also be found that the effect of. size disorder on band gaps is analogous to that of location disorder. When the perturbation coefficient is big, it has more pronounced effects on the pass bands in the piezoelectric phononic crystals with both size and location disorders than in the piezoelectric phononic crystals with single disorder. In higher frequency regions the piezoelectric effect reduces the transmission coefficients. But for larger disorder degree, the effects of the piezoelectricity will be reduced.展开更多

In order to find the eigenvalues of the problem, besides the sources used to expand the wave field, an extra monopole source is introduced which acts as the external excitation. By varying the frequency of the excitation, the eigenvalues can be localized as the extreme points of an appropriately chosen function. By sweeping the frequency range of interest and sweeping the boundary of the irreducible first Brillouin zone, the band structure is obtained. Some numerical examples are presented to validate the proposed method.展开更多

The effects of nonlocal imperfect interfaces on band structures of transverse waves propagating obliquely or vertically in the system are studied. The correctness of the present method is verified by comparing the numerical results with those obtained by applying the transfer matrix method in the case of nonlocal perfect interface. Furthermore, the influences of the nanoscale size, the impedance ratio and the incident angle on the cut-off frequency and band structures are investigated and discussed in detail. Numerical results show that the nonlocal interface imperfections have significant effects on the band structures in the macroscopic and microscopic scale.展开更多

As one of the most favorable topologies, two- dimensional soft structures with circular holes have been extensively studied. Based on the contrarian thinking, this paper starts from the two-dimensional soft structures with criss-crossed elliptical holes, which is close to the post-buckling configuration of soft structures with circular holes, and then proposes to tune the band gaps through elongating or stretching rather than compressing. Influences of the loading magnitude and loading pattern （i.e., uniaxial and biaxial elongations） on the band gaps are studied via the nonlinear finite element simulations. Effects of the geometric parameters （the major-to-minor half-axis ratio and the porosity of the structure） are also discussed. It is shown that, compared with the traditional circular hole case, the band gaps of the unloaded structure with criss-crossed elliptical holes are much richer, and they could be reversely and continuously tuned by tensile loadings. In particular, the deformation is very robust and is insensitive to small geometric imperfections, which is always necessary for triggering the post-buckling deformations. The present work provides a useful reference to the manipula- tion of elastic waves in periodic structures as well as the design of soft phononic crystals/acoustic devices.展开更多

文摘In this paper, we establish discrete flexural lattice chain models of Bragg and locally resonant phononic crystals by setting mass defect atoms and local resonant elements on the flexural lattice chain. The bandgap characteristics of flexural wave in phononic crystals are studied by establishing the governing equations of the model. The results from models show that with the change of the mass ratio of defective atoms to normal atoms, the bandgap of the flexural wave produced by Bragg scattering shows a certain rule. When the local resonant bandgap and Bragg scattering bandgap are close to each other, the two bandgaps will be coupled to form a wider flexural wave bandgap. The effect of axial strain on bending wave propagation is only the shift of bandgap position. The effect of material damping on the propagation of a bending wave is only energy dissipation at high frequency. In addition, we use finite element simulation to calculate the bandgap of flexural wave in phononic crystals with mass defects, and the results are consistent with lattice chain model. This shows that lattice chain model can effectively guide the bandgap design of phononic crystals. This comprehensive study may help to elucidate the rule of bandgap generation of flexural wave in one-dimensional phononic crystals.

The flexural wave is localized at the point of excitation in band gaps, while the directional behaviour occurs at particular frequencies in pass bands. These studies provide guidelines to designing periodic structures for vibration attenuation.

文摘The wave propagation is studied in two-dimensional disordered piezoelectric phononic crystals using the finite-difference time-domain （FDTD） method. For different cases of disorder, the transmission coefficients are calculated. The influences of disorders on band gaps are investigated. The results show that the disorder in the piezoelectric phononic crystals has more significant influences on the band gap in the low frequency regions than in the high frequency ones. The relation between the width of band gap and the direction of position disorder is also discussed. When the position disorder is along the direction perpendicular to the wave transmission, the piezoelectric phononic crystals have wider band gaps at low frequency regions than the case of position disorder being along the wave transmission direction. It can also be found that the effect of. size disorder on band gaps is analogous to that of location disorder. When the perturbation coefficient is big, it has more pronounced effects on the pass bands in the piezoelectric phononic crystals with both size and location disorders than in the piezoelectric phononic crystals with single disorder. In higher frequency regions the piezoelectric effect reduces the transmission coefficients. But for larger disorder degree, the effects of the piezoelectricity will be reduced.

文摘The elastic wave propagation properties of phononic crystals(PnCs)composed of an elastic matrix embedded in magnetorheological and electrorheological elastomers are studied in this paper.The tunable band gaps and transmission spectra of these materials are calculated using the finite element method and supercell technology.The variations in the band gap characteristics with changes in the electric/magnetic fields are given.The numerical results show that the electric and magnetic fields can be used in combination to adjust the band gaps effectively.The start and stop frequencies of the band gap are obviously affected by the electric field,and the band gap width is regulated more significantly by the magnetic field.The widest and highest band gap can be obtained by combined application of the electric and magnetic fields.In addition,the band gaps can be moved to the low-frequency region by drilling holes in the PnC,which can also open or close new band gaps.These results indicate the possibility of multi-physical field regulation and design optimization of the elastic wave properties of intelligent PnCs.

文摘A multiple monopole （or multipole） method based on the generalized mul- tipole technique （GMT） is proposed to calculate the band structures of scalar waves in two-dimensional phononic crystals which are composed of arbitrarily shaped cylinders embedded in a host medium. In order to find the eigenvalues of the problem, besides the sources used to expand the wave field, an extra monopole source is introduced which acts as the external excitation. By varying the frequency of the excitation, the eigenvalues can be localized as the extreme points of an appropriately chosen function. By sweeping the frequency range of interest and sweeping the boundary of the irreducible first Brillouin zone, the band structure is obtained. Some numerical examples are presented to validate the proposed method.

文摘A radial basis function collocation method based on the nonlocal elastic continuum theory is developed to compute the band structures of nanoscale multilayered phononic crystals. The effects of nonlocal imperfect interfaces on band structures of transverse waves propagating obliquely or vertically in the system are studied. The correctness of the present method is verified by comparing the numerical results with those obtained by applying the transfer matrix method in the case of nonlocal perfect interface. Furthermore, the influences of the nanoscale size, the impedance ratio and the incident angle on the cut-off frequency and band structures are investigated and discussed in detail. Numerical results show that the nonlocal interface imperfections have significant effects on the band structures in the macroscopic and microscopic scale.

文摘Tuning band gaps in soft materials by post-buckling deformation is becoming an appealing means to manipulate elastic waves. As one of the most favorable topologies, two- dimensional soft structures with circular holes have been extensively studied. Based on the contrarian thinking, this paper starts from the two-dimensional soft structures with criss-crossed elliptical holes, which is close to the post-buckling configuration of soft structures with circular holes, and then proposes to tune the band gaps through elongating or stretching rather than compressing. Influences of the loading magnitude and loading pattern （i.e., uniaxial and biaxial elongations） on the band gaps are studied via the nonlinear finite element simulations. Effects of the geometric parameters （the major-to-minor half-axis ratio and the porosity of the structure） are also discussed. It is shown that, compared with the traditional circular hole case, the band gaps of the unloaded structure with criss-crossed elliptical holes are much richer, and they could be reversely and continuously tuned by tensile loadings. In particular, the deformation is very robust and is insensitive to small geometric imperfections, which is always necessary for triggering the post-buckling deformations. The present work provides a useful reference to the manipula- tion of elastic waves in periodic structures as well as the design of soft phononic crystals/acoustic devices.
