With the aim of selecting particular frequencies of interest and rejecting others, the waveguiding and filtering properties of a two-dimensional phononic crystal slab are investigated in the context of a filtering application. To this end, we designed and manufactured a metallic device that consists of a square lattice of cylindrical pillars mounted on the top of a plate by using 3D printing technology. We respectively explored the theoretical and experimental characteristics of the device by using finite element method, a Micro System Analyzer (MSA) and a scanning laser Doppler vibrometer. The proposed device shows a complete band gap for Lamb wave around 0.3 MHz with a relative band-width of 30 % . Tailorable waveguides are realized inside this phononic crystal by inserting several space gaps to achieve a demultiplexing effect through the splitting of an acoustic signal towards three different bandpass frequency channels. The demultiplexing performance has been experimentally demonstrated by achieving rejection levels up to 60 dB. The proposed phononic platform can have a significant impact in signal processing as well as droplet manipulation for biological applications.

Propagation of flexural vibration in a ternary phononic crystal thin plate with a point defect are explored using finite element method. The thin concrete plate is composed of steel cylinders hemmed around by rubber with a square lattice. Absolute band gaps, point defect bands and transmission response curves with low frequency are investigated. Comparing the results of finite element method with that of improved plane wave expansion method, precise identifications are obtained to identify the point defect states. The results show that the finite element method is suitable for the exploring of flexural vibration propagating in ternary phononic crystal thin plates.

A periodic array of shunted piezoelectric patches is used to produce a two-dimensional metamaterial with tunable properties. The proposed configuration exploits the waveguiding capabilities of a phononic crystal plate in conjunction with a periodic arrangement of eight surface-bonded PZT disks. Each piezo transducer is connected to an independent resistive-inductive network, so that the system features an internal resonance that occurs at the tuning frequency of the shunting circuits. The dispersion relations of the resulting metamaterial are experimentally estimated through detailed mappings of the wavefield measured using a scanning laser doppler vibrometer. Experimental results indicate that the coupled system features a band structure behavior induced by the internal resonance of the electrical networks, and suggest the possibility to alter the waveguiding properties of the considered metamaterial without modifying the physical structure of the phononic crystal plate.

In this paper, propagation of flexural vibration in phononic crystal thin plates with straight, bending or branching linear defects are explored using finite element method. The plate is composed of an array of circular crystalline Al2O3 cylinders embedded periodically in the epoxy matrix with a square lattice. The numerical results showed that accurate band structures and transmission response curves could be obtained by finite element method compared with that of improved plane wave expansion method. The exploration indicated that finite element method is efficient and suitable in dealing with the wave propagation in phononic crystal, and displays potential abilities in dealing with complex structures.

In this paper, propagation of flexural vibration in phononic crystal thin plates with a point defect are explored using finite element method. The plate is composed of an array of circular crystalline Al2O3 cylinders embedded periodically in the epoxy matrix with a square lattice. The point defect is introduced by changing one of the cylinders’ radii. Comparing the results of finite element method with that of improved plane wave expansion method, complete and accurate band structures and transmission response curves are obtained using the former method to identify the point defect eigenmodes and band gaps. The results show that the finite element method is efficient and suitable for the exploring of point defect states of phononic crystal thin plates.

Two dimensional multi-atom Archimedean-like phononic crystals (MAPCs) can be obtained by adding "atoms" at suitable positions in primitive cells of traditional simple lattices. Band structures of solid-solid and solid-air MAPCs are computed by the finite element method in conjunction with the Bloch theory. For the solid-solid system, our results show that the MAPCs can be suitably designed to split and shift band gaps of the corresponding traditional simple phononic crystal (i.e., with only one scatterer inside a primitive cell). For the solid-air system, the MAPCs have more and wider band gaps than the corresponding traditional simple phononic crystal. Numerical calculations for both solid-solid and solid-air MAPCs show that the band gap of traditional simple phononic crystal can be tuned by appropriately adding "atoms" into its primitive cell.

ABSTRACT: This work presents the dynamic response of a lock subjected to the horizontal S0E component of the El Centro earthquake for empty and completely filled water chamber cases, by coupled fluid-structure analysis. Initially, the lock was studied by approximation, considering it similar to the case of a double piston coupled to a two-dimensional acoustic cavity (tank), representing a simplified analytical model of the fluid-structure problem. This analytical formulation can be compared with numerical results, in order to qualify the responses of the ultimate problem to be investigated. In all the analyses performed, modeling and numerical simulations were done using the finite element method (FEM), supported by the commercial software ANSYS.
