Discrete One-dimensional Models for the Electromomentum Coupling
Kevin Muhafra, Michael R. Haberman, Gal Shmuel
Willis dynamic homogenization theory revealed that the effective linear momentum of elastic composites is coupled to their effective strain. % This result, which is partially due t…
Maximizing the electromomentum coupling in piezoelectric laminates
Majd Kosta, Alan Muhafra, René Pernas Salomón +2
Asymmetric piezoelectric composites exhibit coupling between their macroscopic linear momentum and electric field, a coupling that does not appear at the microscopic scale. This el…
On the band gap universality multiphase laminates and its applications
Ben Lustig, Gal Shmuel
\citet{Shmuel2016JMPS} discovered that all infinite band structures of waves at normal incidence in two-phase laminates are encapsulated in a compact universal manifold. We show th…
Universality and optimality of band-gaps in laminated media
Gal Shmuel, Ram Band
We find that the frequency spectra of layered phononic and photonic composites admit a universal struc- ture, independent of the geometry of the periodic-cell and the specific phys…
