Phononic crystals : artificial crystals for sonic, acoustic, and elastic waves

Phononic crystals : artificial crystals for sonic, acoustic, and elastic waves / Vincent Laude.

The theory of phononic crystals, i.e., artificial periodic structures that can alter the flow of acoustic waves, as well as numerical modelling techniques are presented in this volume. It contains a comprehensive set of tutorials on solving basic phononic crystal problems with finite element models...
