A concept for acoustic metamaterials consisting of a cellular medium with fluid-filled cells is fabricated and studied experimentally. In such a system, the fluid and solid structure explicitly interact, and elastic wave propagation is coupled to both phas ...
Italian territory is particularly sensitive to seismic actions. The Amatrice earthquake on August 24th 2016 confirmed this aspect. Such an event, nothing but extraordinary, has been able to cause huge and tragic damages. The direct knowledge of building fe ...
The vortical structures and turbulence statistics in the near wake of rectangular, trapezoidal, triangular and ellipsoidal tabs were experimentally studied in a refractive-index-matching channel. The tabs share the same bulk dimensions, including a 17Â mm ...
Gap-plasmons (GP) in metal-insulator-metal (MIM) structures have shown exceptional performance in guiding and concentrating light within deep subwavelength layers. Reported designs to date exploit tapered thicknesses of the insulating layer in order to con ...
We study the unique wave manipulation capabilities of Parity-Time symmetric pairs of metasurfaces operated at exceptional point conditions. We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally the relevance of these systems to induce wave phenomena typically ob ...
We introduce and discuss time-Floquet metamaterials, or artificial media possessing a double periodicity both in space and time. They can be obtained from a regular crystal by periodically modulating in time the physical properties of each unit cell, leadi ...
An acoustic metasurface carpet cloak based on membrane-capped cavities is proposed and investigated numerically. This design has been chosen for allowing ultrathin geometries, although adapted to airborne sound frequencies in the range of 1 kHz (λ≈30 cm), ...
The recent discovery of topological states in condensed matter physics has spawned a quest for similar effects in classical physics. Topological insulators are bulk insulators supporting bandgap crossing, chiral edge states that are immune to backscatterin ...
Metamaterials are often defined as artificial compositions designed to exhibit desired physical properties. These materials attract a lot of research attention due to unusual behavior that may not yet have been seen in nature. Although there is no commonly ...
We introduce design transformations for rule-based procedural models, e.g., for buildings and plants. Given two or more procedural designs, each specified by a grammar, a design transformation combines elements of the existing designs to generate new desig ...
