Résumé

Wave propagation in granular solids is found to have at least two regimes: a low-frequency ballistic signal and a high-frequency diffusive tail. The latter is attributed to granules clapping or elastic waves within the granules themselves. The low frequency front is traditionally attributed to the rigid-body motion of particles and their interactions via quasi-static contact forces. We present results obtained with experimental and numerical models indicating that the low-frequency ballistic wavefront is itself the result of surface waves in the granules. We find surface waves to be the principal mechanism of energy transmission.

Onde sismique

thumb|Différentes ondes sismiques.|alt= Les ondes sismiques, ou ondes élastiques, sont des mouvements vibratoires qui se propagent à travers un milieu matériel et peuvent le modifier irréversiblement si leur amplitude est suffisante. Elles sont engendrées par un événement initial, généralement un séisme. L'impulsion de départ déplace les atomes du milieu, qui en poussent d'autres avant de reprendre leur place, ces déplacements oscillatoires se propageant ensuite de proche en proche.

Onde de Rayleigh

L'onde de Rayleigh ou onde R est un type d'onde sismique. Elle a été découverte par John William Strutt Rayleigh en 1885. Son déplacement est complexe, assez semblable à celui d'une poussière portée par une vague, constituant un mouvement à la fois horizontal et vertical. vignette|Mouvement des particules d'une onde de Rayleigh. vignette|Comparaison de la vitesse de l'onde de Rayleigh avec les vitesses des ondes de cisaillement et longitudinales pour un matériau élastique isotrope.

Surface wave

In physics, a surface wave is a mechanical wave that propagates along the interface between differing media. A common example is gravity waves along the surface of liquids, such as ocean waves. Gravity waves can also occur within liquids, at the interface between two fluids with different densities. Elastic surface waves can travel along the surface of solids, such as Rayleigh or Love waves. Electromagnetic waves can also propagate as "surface waves" in that they can be guided along with a refractive index gradient or along an interface between two media having different dielectric constants.

Optothermal shaping of lamb waves with square and spiral phase fronts

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Aleksi Antoine Bossart, Janez Rus

We introduce a Lamb-wave medium with tunable propagation velocities, which are controlled by a two-dimensional heating pattern produced by a laser beam. We utilized it to demonstrate that waves in an appropriately designed medium can propagate in the form ...

Mitigating the energy requirements of artificial intelligence requires novel physical substrates for computation. Phononic metamaterials have vanishingly low power dissipation and hence are a prime candidate for green, always-on computers. However, their u ...

Oblique streaming waves observed in multipactor-induced plasma discharge above a dielectric surface

Guang-Yu Sun, Haomin Sun

In a recent discovery (Wen et al 2022 Phys. Rev. Lett. 129 045001), streaming waves were found in multipactor-induced plasma discharges. However, due to the limitations of a 1D simulation setup, these waves displayed only transverse dynamics. In this lette ...
