Acoustic Metamaterials in Aeronautics [PDF]
Metamaterials, man-made composites that are scaled smaller than the wavelength, have demonstrated a huge potential for application in acoustics, allowing the production of sub-wavelength acoustic absorbers, acoustic invisibility, perfect acoustic mirrors

Underwater acoustic metamaterials. [PDF]
Abstract Acoustic metamaterials have been widely investigated over the past few decades and have realized acoustic parameters that are not achievable using conventional materials. After demonstrating that locally resonant acoustic metamaterials are capable of acting as subwavelength unit cells, researchers have evaluated the possibility ...

Waves are generally characterized by angular frequency ω and wavevector k. Accordingly, this tutorial is structured into two parts, one on resonance-based acoustic metamaterials, in the frequency domain, and one on topological acoustics, based on the wavevector domain as topological structures inherently involve spatial configurations that are a step ...

Magnetoactive Acoustic Metamaterials
AbstractAcoustic metamaterials with negative constitutive parameters (modulus and/or mass density) have shown great potential in diverse applications ranging from sonic cloaking, abnormal refraction and superlensing, to noise canceling. In conventional acoustic metamaterials, the negative constitutive parameters are engineered via tailored structures ...

Moth wings are acoustic metamaterials. [PDF]
Significance Bats and moths are embroiled in an evolutionary arms race. Using ultrasonic biosonar, bats detect their insect prey, which in turn deploy diverse strategies to avoid predation. Here, we show that some moth species evolved wings covered with a canopy of scales that reduces ultrasonic echoes. Our empirical and mathematical analysis
