Statistical Optimization of Underwater Lower-Frequency Sound Insulation for Locally Resonant Sonic Material Using Genetic Algorithm

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2019
The locally resonant sonic material (LRSM) is an artificial metamaterial that can block underwater sound. The low-frequency insulation performance of LRSM can be enhanced by coupling local resonance and Bragg scattering effects.

Design of double negativity elastic metamaterial

open access: yesInternational Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2015
A metamaterial model that possesses simultaneously negative effective mass density and negative effective Young’s modulus is proposed in this study. Dispersion curves and dynamic responses of the model are investigated.

Acoustic Transmission Characteristics Based on H-Type Metamaterials

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
To achieve the artificial manipulation of the acoustic wave front, and to produce high-efficiency acoustic focusing effect, this paper designed an $H$ -type locally resonant metamaterial structure based on a two-dimensional three-component local ...

Study on vibration bandgap characteristics of a cantilever beam type local resonance unit

open access: yesXibei Gongye Daxue Xuebao
This article proposes a novel phononic crystal configuration consisting of a through-hole cantilever beam and a mass block, and conducts numerical analysis and experimental verification on the bandgap characteristics of a two-dimensional periodic array ...

Vibration of Periodic Drill-Strings with Local Sources of Resonance

open access: yesVibration, 2021
A new class of drill-strings is proposed for attenuating undesirable vibrations to ensure effective operation. The drill-string is provided with passive periodic inserts, which are integrated with sources of local resonance (LR).

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Common carotid intima media thickness and ankle-brachial pressure index correlate with local but not global atheroma burden:a cross sectional study using whole body magnetic resonance angiography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Common carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) and ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) are used as surrogate marker of atherosclerosis, and have been shown to correlate with arterial stiffness, however their correlation with global atherosclerotic burden ...

Universal and local time components in Schumann resonance intensity [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2008
We extend the technique suggested by Sentman and Fraser (1991) and discussed by Pechony and Price (2006), the technique for separating the local and universal time variations in the Schumann resonance intensity.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.
