Opis

Requiring no advanced knowledge of wave propagation, this text focuses on theoretical aspects of metamaterials, periodic composites, and layered composites. It gives novices a platform from which they can start exploring the subject in more detail. With special emphasis on elastic media and acoustics, the book covers elastodynamic, acoustic, and
