Computational modeling of phononic pseudocrystal isolators

Methods for the efficient computational prediction of the performance of phononic pseudocrystals (structured materials capable of blocking extraordinary ranges of frequency) in COMSOL and other comparable finite element method codes are set forth. These methods include boundary conditions that make possible halving the size of the computational domain. Also included is an introduction of elastic energy density methods for assessing the extinction of elastic waves within the patterned region.

GENERATING CORCOS-COHERENT SIGNAL SERIES USING PHASE PERTURBATION​

Phase perturbations are used to simulate the time-domain behavior of pressure loads from turbulent boundary layers while faithfully representing the coherence decay behaviors of turbulence-generated pressure fields. Turbulence "evolves" as it proceeds downstream, and coherence decays as the decaying exponential of the product of a flow-related constant with frequency and distance. Time domain methods for a line, a plane, a closed cyclic surface, and most of a cone were given.
