The plane wave expansion (PWE) method is used to calculate the band gaps of two-dimensional (2D) phononic crystals (PCs) with a hybrid square-like (HSL) lattice. Band structures of both XY-mode and Z-mode are calculated. Numerical results show that the band gaps between any two bands could be maximized by altering the radius ratio of the inclusions at different positions. By comparing with square lattice and bathroom lattice, the HSL lattice is more efficient in creating larger gaps.

The excellent applications and researches of so-called photonic crystals raise the exciting researches of phononic crystals. By the analogy between photon and phonon, repetitive composite structures that are made up of different elastic materials can also prevent elastic waves of some certain frequencies from passing by, i.e., the frequency band gap features also exist in acoustic waves. In this paper, we present the results of the tunable band gaps of acoustic waves in two-dimensional phononic crystals with reticular band structures using the finite element method. Band gaps variations of the bulk modes due to different thickness and angles of reticular band structures are calculated and discussed. The results show that the total elastic band gaps for mixed polarization modes can be enlarged or reduced by adjusting the orientation of the reticular band structures. The phenomena of band gaps of elastic or acoustic waves can potentially be utilized for vibration-free, high-precision mechanical systems, and sound insulation.

In this paper, a method based on the displacement-traction map is developed to calculate the bandgaps of transverse waves propagating in a 2D phononic crystal composed of nanosized circular holes in a square lattice. The Young-Laplace equation is employed to take into account of the surface effects of the nanosized holes. Detailed calculations are performed for the system with nanosized circular holes in an aluminum host with or without the surface effect. The result shows that all bands descend with the first bandgap becoming wider due to the existence of the surface effects.

Viscoelastic materials can dissipate energy and hinder propagation for plane waves, which can adjust the band structures of phononic crystals (PCs). In this study, the wave propagation in a two-dimensional PC with a viscoelastic matrix is investigated. The Maxwell model is utilized to analyze the effect of material parameters on the frequency dependence of viscoelasticity. Material parameters include the relaxation time, the initial value and the final value of the shear modulus. Band structures of viscoelastic phononic crystals (VPCs) are solved by combining the plane wave expansion method and iterative algorithm based on Bloch theory. The effects of the viscoelasticity on the band structures are studied using the single-mode and multi-mode Maxwell models. Results reveal that the viscoelasticity of the materials not only extends the band gaps but also shifts the band gaps to lower frequencies. Furthermore, the viscoelasticity simulated by the multi-mode model can precisely adjust anyone of the band gaps of VPCs separately. Results provide insights into the design and applications of VPCs.

The control of band structures of 2D phononic crystals (PCs) composed of piezoelectric inclusions and elastic isotropic matrix with mechanical/electrical biasing fields is theoretically investigated. The theory for small fields superposed on biasing fields and the plane wave expansion (PWE) method is employed to compute the band structures of the PCs under different biasing fields, including the initial shear/normal stress and the initial electric field. We find that the initial shear stress breaks the symmetry of the material. In consequence, the two bands associated with the level repulsion effect are opened near the apparent crosspoint and form a local band gap. On the other hand, the normal initial stress and the biasing electric field change the effective stiffness and shift the positions of band gaps. The observed phenomena show that the biasing fields can be flexibly used to tune the PC devices.
