Abstract
In this paper, one-dimensional (1D) acousto-elastic metamaterial (AEMM) beams are proposed for simultaneous control of elastic and acoustic waves. The AEMM beam is formed by attaching hollow cylinders periodically on the surface of an elastic beam. In the elastic case, the characteristics of flexural waves are analyzed. On the other hand, the AEMM beam supports the guidance of surface acoustic waves. The band structures as well as the frequency responses of the AEMM beam are numerically calculated by employing the finite element approach. For either elastic flexural waves or surface acoustic waves, the band-gaps can be effectively modified by varying the geometry of the hollow cylinders. Furthermore, according to the concept of mode gap, the AEMM beam with a point defect is designed by changing the geometric configuration for dual wave confinement. For the experimental verification, the perfect and defected AEMM beams are fabricated through 3D-printing. The existence of passbands and band-gaps for elastic and acoustic waves is demonstrated numerically and experimentally. Moreover, simultaneous localization of elastic and acoustic waves within the defected AEMM beam is observed.
