Abstract
This work analyzes the propagation of acoustic waves in quasi-periodic structures for filter applications. The study focuses on a proposed one-dimensional quasi-periodic structure employing generalized Thue–Morse sequences. The suggested configuration consists of two basic building blocks: the block ‘X’ is a parallel configuration of closed resonators grafted on the main duct. The block ‘Y’ has a single open resonator integrated into the same main duct. Using the transfer matrix method and finite element method, the study investigates the acoustic bandgap characteristics of Thue–Morse. The present work leverages both methods, comparing their predictions and emphasizing the impact of multidimensional effects, particularly in the context of Thue–Morse sequences. Besides, the results show that acoustic band gaps can be tuned, and there are localized modes that can help filter waves and suppress high-frequency noise.
期刊介绍:
he Journal of Computational Electronics brings together research on all aspects of modeling and simulation of modern electronics. This includes optical, electronic, mechanical, and quantum mechanical aspects, as well as research on the underlying mathematical algorithms and computational details. The related areas of energy conversion/storage and of molecular and biological systems, in which the thrust is on the charge transport, electronic, mechanical, and optical properties, are also covered.
In particular, we encourage manuscripts dealing with device simulation; with optical and optoelectronic systems and photonics; with energy storage (e.g. batteries, fuel cells) and harvesting (e.g. photovoltaic), with simulation of circuits, VLSI layout, logic and architecture (based on, for example, CMOS devices, quantum-cellular automata, QBITs, or single-electron transistors); with electromagnetic simulations (such as microwave electronics and components); or with molecular and biological systems. However, in all these cases, the submitted manuscripts should explicitly address the electronic properties of the relevant systems, materials, or devices and/or present novel contributions to the physical models, computational strategies, or numerical algorithms.
