Cymatics for the cloaking of flexural vibrations in a structured plate

Cymatics for the cloaking of flexural vibrations in a structured plate

We present a proof of concept design for a structured square cloak enclosing a void in an elastic lattice, subjected to flexural vibrations. In addition to the theoretical design, we fabricate and experimentally test an elastic invisibility cloak for flexural waves in a mechanical lattice. Further verification and modelling is …
