On the surface Bloch waves in truncated periodic media: scalar-wave primer
Bojan B. Guzina, Shixu Meng, Prasanna Salasiya +1
Much like their counterparts in homogenous elastic solids, waves in periodic media can be broadly classified into Floquet-Bloch body waves, and evanescent surface waves. Our goal i…

Ultrasonic sensing of the mechanical fingerprint of reactive transport in rock
Ali Aminzadeh, Prasanna Salasiya, Joseph F. Labuz +2
Mineral carbon storage in rock formations has gained significant interest in recent years. In principle, changes in mechanical rock properties driven by carbon mineralization could…

A simple tool for the optimization of 1D phononic and photonic bandgap filters
Prasanna Salasiya, Bojan B. Guzina
We develop an effective computational tool for simulating the scattering of 1D waves by a composite layer architected in an otherwise homogeneous medium. The layer is designed as t…
