Biswajit Banerjee

An Introduction to Metamaterials and Waves in Composites

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Requiring no advanced knowledge of wave propagation, this text focuses on theoretical aspects of metamaterials, periodic composites, and layered composites. It gives novices a platform from which they can start exploring the subject in more detail. With special emphasis on elastic media and acoustics, the book covers elastodynamic, acoustic, and electrodynamic metamaterials, including negative permittivity materials, artificial magnetic metamaterials, Willis materials, and extremal materials. Mainly self-contained, it provides detailed derivations, numerous illustrations, end-of-chapter problems, and extensive references.
