Broadband, reconfigurable and multifunctional elastic wave control with smart metamaterials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)Over the past two decades, an extensive research effort has been devoted to elastic metamaterials, structured artificial materials at subwavelength scales, for elastic wave manipulations in solids. Due to the extreme values ... -
Design and experimental testing of metamaterial-based agitators
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Due to the low heat rejection capacity or huge water consumption of traditional cooling methods, many power plants are looking for a way that is eco-friendly and high efficient but low-cost to retrofit their current cooling ... -
Design and optimization of dissipative elastic metamaterials and their applications for broadband blast and shockwave mitigation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Elastic/Acoustic metamaterials comprise a new class of composite materials that possess unique effective material properties owing to their locally resonant substructures. Because of the inherent local resonance mechanism, ... -
Dynamic model of sandwich structure with viscoelastic middle layers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Composite materials have been increasingly used in various types of engineering systems such as aeronautics, aerospace and civil engineering to minimize the structural weight. Viscoelastic layer has a level of energy ... -
Mechanical metamaterials application in wave mitigation and structure protection
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] "Metamaterials have been extensively developed in many areas over the past two decades, a great deal of research has been conducted on acoustic/elastic ... -
Programmable elastic metamaterials for wave and vibration control
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Emerging from electromagnetic waves and fast extending to acoustics and elastics, metamaterials as artificial structures exhibit extraordinary wave ... -
Study of damping effects on double negative acoustic metamaterials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] An insight into the working damping mechanism of a novel microstructure to attenuate wave propagation, is obtained for a better design of metamaterials ... -
Study on single and double layers micro-perforated panel absorbers and optimal design by genetic algorithm
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Base on Maa's general theory of micro-perforated panel absorber, the acoustic absorption performance of single and double layers MPP absorbers are ... -
Topological mechanics and acoustics : theoretical and experimental demonstration
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Topological insulators are new phases of matter whose properties are derived from a number of qualitative yet robust topological invariants rather ... -
Unprecedented wave control with active elastic metamaterials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)The research of elastic metamaterials has received tremendous attention from both academic and industrial communities over the past decade or so. Elastic metamaterials are a type of structured artificial composites whose ...
