Band structure calculation of scalar waves in two-dimensional phononic crystals based on generalized multipole technique

摘要

A multiple monopole(or multipole) method based on the generalized multipole technique(GMT) is proposed to calculate the band structures of scalar waves in two-dimensional phononic crystals which are composed of arbitrarily shaped cylinders embedded in a host medium.In order to find the eigenvalues of the problem,besides the sources used to expand the wave field,an extra monopole source is introduced which acts as the external excitation.By varying the frequency of the excitation,the eigenvalues can be localized as the extreme points of an appropriately chosen function.By sweeping the frequency range of interest and sweeping the boundary of the irreducible first Brillouin zone,the band structure is obtained.Some numerical examples are presented to validate the proposed method.
