PhD on reconfigurable Elastic Metamaterials at Politecnico di Torino, Italy

This PhD project will investigate wave propagation in architected media whose dynamic response can be modified through external stimuli, deformation, flows or intrinsic nonlinearities. The general objective is to understand how reconfigurability and nonlinear effects can be used to control dispersion, localization, transmission, mode conversion, and energy transport in architected media.
