Theoretical Optimization of Trapped-Bubble-Based Acoustic Metamaterial Performance

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Acoustic metamaterials have proven to be a versatile tool for the precise control and manipulation of sound waves. One of the promising designs of acoustic metamaterials employ the arrays of bubbles and find applications for soundproofing, blast ...

Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.

Two-Dimensional Pentamode Metamaterials: Properties, Manufacturing, and Applications

open access: yesCrystals
Metamaterials are artificial materials with properties depending mainly on their designed structures instead of their materials. Pentamode metamaterials are one type of metamaterial.

Fine manipulation of sound via lossy metamaterials with independent and arbitrary reflection amplitude and phase

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The formation of true holograms requires control of both amplitude and phase; however, acoustic metamaterials are generally limited to phase control only. Here, Zhu et al.

Explaining the Origin of Negative Poisson's Ratio in Amorphous Networks With Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how machine learning (ML) breaks the “vicious cycle” in designing auxetic amorphous networks. By transitioning from traditional “black‐box” optimization to an interpretable “AI‐Physics” closed‐loop paradigm, ML is shown to not only discover highly optimized structures—such as all‐convex polygon networks—but also unveil hidden ...

Acoustic Properties of a Metamaterial Acoustic Barrier

open access: yes, 2020
In the last years, a lot of papers have reported the results of researchers on metamaterials. The study of metamaterials represents a new research field in noise control. Metamaterials are artificial structures with periodical elements, made by the arrangement of scatterers in a square or triangular lattice configuration.

Nano-electromechanical switchable photonic metamaterials

open access: yes, 2011
We introduce mechanically reconfigurable electrostatically-driven photonic metamaterials (RPMs) as a generic platform for large-range tuning and switching of photonic metamaterial properties.

Artificial structures for human‐machine interfaces with closed‐loop interaction

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Artificial structures bridge sensing and feedback in closed‐loop human‐machine interfaces by providing geometry‐enabled mechanical and functional programmability. This review maps the role of artificial structures in diverse sensing modalities and feedback strategies, and illustrates their integration into closed‐loop interaction systems, highlighting ...
