Abstract
Elastic metasurfaces have been rapidly developed for effective modulation of elastic wave propagation. Among them, utilizing the electromechanical coupling effect of piezoelectric materials provides a promising way to design tunable and multifunctional elastic metasurfaces, but piezoelectric metasurfaces still face big challenges in theoretical guidance and experiments. In this paper, a tunable piezoelectric metasurface is proposed for achieving modulation of flexural wave in broad working frequency range. Based on the developed electromechanical coupling model, the piezoelectric patch with shunt resistor–inductor circuit is analyzed, and the functional unit of metasurface with only two piezoelectric patches is designed for modulating the flexural wave in thin plate. By using Antoniou’s circuit and considering the effect of impedance in circuit, the arbitral phase shift of functional unit is experimentally achieved by adjustable shunt circuits to verify the turnability in a full 2 range. Further, the piezoelectric metasurface by assembling functional units can realize multiple functions, like tunable anomalous refraction and wave focusing, by adjusting shunt circuits.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Mechanical Sciences (IJMS) serves as a global platform for the publication and dissemination of original research that contributes to a deeper scientific understanding of the fundamental disciplines within mechanical, civil, and material engineering.
The primary focus of IJMS is to showcase innovative and ground-breaking work that utilizes analytical and computational modeling techniques, such as Finite Element Method (FEM), Boundary Element Method (BEM), and mesh-free methods, among others. These modeling methods are applied to diverse fields including rigid-body mechanics (e.g., dynamics, vibration, stability), structural mechanics, metal forming, advanced materials (e.g., metals, composites, cellular, smart) behavior and applications, impact mechanics, strain localization, and other nonlinear effects (e.g., large deflections, plasticity, fracture).
Additionally, IJMS covers the realms of fluid mechanics (both external and internal flows), tribology, thermodynamics, and materials processing. These subjects collectively form the core of the journal's content.
In summary, IJMS provides a prestigious platform for researchers to present their original contributions, shedding light on analytical and computational modeling methods in various areas of mechanical engineering, as well as exploring the behavior and application of advanced materials, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and materials processing.
