An Enhanced Plane Wave Expansion Method to Solve Piezoelectric Phononic Crystal with Resonant Shunting Circuits

الملخص EN

An enhanced plane wave expansion (PWE) method is proposed to solve piezoelectric phononic crystal (PPC) connected with resonant shunting circuits (PPC-C), which is named as PWE-PPC-C.

The resonant shunting circuits can not only bring about the locally resonant (LR) band gap for the PPC-C but also conveniently tune frequency and bandwidth of band gaps through adjusting circuit parameters.

However, thus far, more than one-dimensional PPC-C has been studied just by Finite Element method.

Compared with other methods, the PWE has great advantages in solving more than one-dimensional PC as well as various lattice types.

Nevertheless, the conventional PWE cannot accurately solve coupling between the structure and resonant shunting circuits of the PPC-C since only taking one-way coupling from displacements to electrical parameters into consideration.

A two-dimensional PPC-C model of orthorhombic lattice is established to demonstrate the whole solving process of PWE-PPC-C.

The PWE-PPC-C method is validated by Transfer Matrix method as well as Finite Element method.

The dependence of band gaps on circuit parameters has been investigated in detail by PWE-PPC-C.

Its advantage in solving various lattice types is further illustrated by calculating the PPC-C of triangular and hexagonal lattices, respectively.
