A seismic metamaterial: the resonant metawedge

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Andrea Colombi from the University of have published the article: A seismic metamaterial: The resonant metawedge, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports

SUMMARY

    The authors unite critical concepts from several seemingly disparate fields including, plasmonics, metamaterials, elasticity, and geophysics to design a seismic metawedge capable of creating a seismic rainbow to mode convert the destructive Rayleigh seismic waves into harmless bulk shear waves. To succinctly illustrate the concepts behind the resonant metawedge as a geophysical metamaterial, the authors model a graded array of vertical resonators in 2D (Fig 1) using the . . .
