Neolithic stone settlements as locally resonant metasurfaces
Stéphane Brûlé, Bogdan Ungureanu, Stefan Enoch +1
We study the dynamic surface response of neolithic stone settlements obtained with seismic ambient noise techniques near the city of Carnac in French Brittany. Surprisingly, we fin…
On the possibility of seismic rogue waves in very soft soils
Stephane Brule, Stefan Enoch, Sebastien Guenneau
Liquid wave studies have shown that under certain constructive interference conditions, an abnormal size wave could be generated at a specific point. This type of wave, described l…
Role of nanophotonics in the birth of seismic megastructures
Stéphane Brûlé, Stefan Enoch, Sébastien Guenneau
The discovery of photonic crystals thirty years ago, in conjunction with research advances in plasmonics and metamaterials, has inspired the concept of decameter scale metasurfaces…
Experimental evidence of auxetic features in seismic metamaterials: Ellipticity of seismic Rayleigh waves for subsurface architectured ground with holes
Stephane Brule, Stefan Enoch, Sebastien Guenneau
Structured soils with regular meshes of metric size holes implemented in first ten meters of the ground have been theoretically and experimentally tested under seismic disturbance…
Control of Rayleigh-like waves in thick plate Willis metamaterials
Andre Diatta, Younes Achaoui, Stéphane Brûlé +2
We explore interactions of elastic waves propagating in plates (with soil parameters) structured with concrete pillars buried in the soil. Pillars are 2 m in diameter, 30 m in dept…
Flat lens for seismic waves
Stephane Brule, Stefan Enoch, Sebastien Guenneau
A prerequisite for achieving seismic invisibility is to demonstrate the ability of civil engineers to control seismic waves with artificially structured soils. We carry out large-s…
