Numerical investigation of dispersion relations for helical waveguides using the Scaled Boundary Finite Element method

In this paper, the dispersion properties of elastic waves in helical waveguides are investigated. The formulation is based on the Scaled Boundary Finite Element method (SBEFM). With a set of orthogonal unit basis introduced as the contravariant basis, the helical coordinate is firstly considered, where components of tensor retain the dimension of original quantity. Based on the strain–displacement relation, the eigenvalue matrix is obtained about wavenumbers and frequencies. The cross section of the waveguides is discretized by using high-order spectral elements. Moreover, the formulated linear matrix is utilized to design efficient and accurate algorithms to compute the eigenvalues of helical waveguides. Compared with the Pochhammer–Chree curves, the convergence and accuracy of the SBFEM are discussed. Finally, we give some dispersion curves for a wide range of lay angles and analyze in detail properties of cut-off frequency, mode separation and mode transition for elastic wave propagation in the helical waveguides.

A three-dimensional frequency selective structure based on the modes coupling of spoof surface plasmon and waveguide transmission

A three-dimensional frequency selective structure (3D FSS) was proposed by applying the spoof surface plasmon (SSP) structures into periodic waveguides, which realizes an enhanced broadband transmission in low frequencies, below the cut-off frequency of periodic waveguides. The transmission characteristics of SSP structures and periodic waveguides as well as their coupling modes are investigated by simulation and experiment method. According to our analysis, the pass-band of this 3D FSS can be customized through changing the values of structure parameters and it also has a good angular stability. In addition, this paper also provides a simple assembly plan for sample preparation. This proposal may be useful for improving filtering performances and gives an effective approach for designing 3D FSSs.     

Reaction matrix for Dirichlet billiards with attached waveguides

The reaction matrix of a cavity with attached waveguides connects scattering properties to properties of a corresponding closed billiard for which the waveguides are cut off by straight walls. On the one hand, this matrix is directly related to the S-matrix, on the other hand it can be expressed by a spectral sum over all eigenfunctions of the closed system. However, in the physically relevant situation where these eigenfunctions vanish on the impenetrable boundaries of the closed billiard, the spectral sum for the reaction matrix, as it was used before, fails to converge and does not reliably reproduce the scattering properties. We derive here a convergent representation of the reaction matrix in terms of eigenmodes satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions and demonstrate its validity in the rectangular and the Sinai billiards.

Analytic model of acoustic streaming in thermoacoustic waveguides with slowly varying cross-section

An analytic model of acoustic streaming generated in two-dimensional thermoa-coustic waveguides with slowly varying cross-section was developed for more general applications. The analytical solutions of acoustic streaming characteristics in the closed straight tube and the annular tube are given based on the model.The solution for the closed straight tube can be applied to the case with any transverse scale.The solution for the annular tube is obtained under the assumption that the width of the varying cross-section part is much larger than the viscous and thermal penetration depths.The effects of cross-section variation,time-averaged temperature distribution and components of sound field are reflected in the analytic solutions. The magnitude and distribution of acoustic streaming velocity vary with the characteristic scale of the waveguides.The analytic model of acoustic streaming can be applied in research under thermoacoustic and other physical backgrounds.
