Metamaterials in Topological Acoustics

Book excerpt: Serves as a single resource on acoustic metamaterials and is the first book to discuss energy harvesting from metamaterials Covers the fundamentals of classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and state-of-the-art condensed matter physics principles so that topological acoustics can be easily understood by engineers Introduces topological behaviors, acoustics hall effects, and applications Details smart materials and introduces different energy harvesting mechanisms for metamaterials followed by mechatronics packaging Explains the pros and cons of different design methods and gives guidelines for selecting specific designs of acoustic metamaterials with specific topological behaviors Includes MATLAB and Python code for numerical analysis
