Sparse metapiles for shear wave attenuation in half-spaces
Paolo Celli, Ilaria Nunzi, Andrea Calabrese +2
We show that shear waves traveling towards the surface of a half-space medium can be attenuated via buried one-dimensional arrays of resonators -- here called metapiles -- arranged…
Continuum field theory for the deformations of planar kirigami
Yue Zheng, Imtiar Niloy, Paolo Celli +2
Mechanical metamaterials exhibit exotic properties at the system level, that emerge from the interactions of many nearly rigid building blocks. Determining these emergent propertie…
Effective continuum models for the buckling of non-periodic architected sheets that display quasi-mechanism behaviors
Connor McMahan, Andrew Akerson, Paolo Celli +2
In this work, we construct an effective continuum model for architected sheets that are composed of bulky tiles connected by slender elastic joints. Due to their mesostructure, the…
Tuning acoustic impedance in load-bearing structures
Sai Sharan Injeti, Paolo Celli, Kaushik Bhattacharya +1
Acoustic transparency is the capability of a medium to transmit mechanical waves to adjacent media, without scattering. This characteristic can be achieved by carefully engineering…
