Abstract: This work focuses on elastic wave propagation in three-dimensional (3D) low-density lattices and explores their wave directionality and energy flow characteristics. In particular, we examine the dynamic response of Kelvin ...

Abstract: This work examines elastic wave propagation phenomena in open-cell foams with the use of the Bloch wave method and finite element analysis. Random foam topologies are generated with the Surface Evolver and subsequently ...
