Abstract

Topology optimization is used to design phononic bandgap materials that are tunable by mechanical deformation. A periodic media is considered, which due to the assumption of length scale separation, allows the dispersion relations to be obtained by analyzing a single unit cell subjected to Floquet–Bloch boundary conditions. A finite macroscopic deformation is applied to the unit cell to affect its geometry and hence dispersion. We tune the dispersion–deformation relation to our liking by solving a topology optimization problem using nonlinear programming. The adjoint method is employed to compute the sensitivities, and the non-differentiability of degenerate eigenvalues is avoided using symmetric polynomials. Several tunable phononic... (More)

A finite macroscopic deformation is applied to the unit cell to affect its geometry and hence dispersion. We tune the dispersion–deformation relation to our liking by solving a topology optimization problem using nonlinear programming. The adjoint method is employed to compute the sensitivities, and the non-differentiability of degenerate eigenvalues is avoided using symmetric polynomials. Several tunable phononic crystal designs are presented. Also, a verification analysis is performed, wherein the optimized design is interpreted and analyzed using a conforming finite element mesh.
