Omnidirectional flexural invisibility of multiple interacting voids in vibrating elastic plates
Omnidirectional flexural invisibility of multiple interacting voids in vibrating elastic plates
In elasticity, the design of a cloaking for an inclusion or a void to leave a vibrational field unperturbed by its presence, so to achieve its invisibility, is a thoroughly analysed, but still unchallenged, mechanical problem. The 'cloaking transformation' concept, originally developed in electromagnetism and optics, is not directly applicable …
