However, this machinery is not directly applicable to the control of elastic waves, because it has been shown that the Navier's equation does not usually retain its form under coordinate transformation. In this letter, we prove the form invariance of the Navier's equation under the conformal mapping based on the Helmholtz decomposition method. The needed material parameters are provided to manipulate elastic waves. The validity of this approach is confirmed by an active stealth device which can disguise the signal source by changing its position. Experimental verifications and potential applications may be expected in nondestructive testing, structural seismic design and other fields.展开更多

文摘The transformation method to control waves has received widespread attention in electromagnetism and acoustics. However, this machinery is not directly applicable to the control of elastic waves, because it has been shown that the Navier's equation does not usually retain its form under coordinate transformation. In this letter, we prove the form invariance of the Navier's equation under the conformal mapping based on the Helmholtz decomposition method. The needed material parameters are provided to manipulate elastic waves. The validity of this approach is confirmed by an active stealth device which can disguise the signal source by changing its position. Experimental verifications and potential applications may be expected in nondestructive testing, structural seismic design and other fields.
