Abstract

Periodic truss materials can be regarded as a kind of phononic crystals, which have both excellent elastic wave band gap properties and good design ability. By reasonably changing the parameters of truss materials, the dispersion relationship of regular distribution can be achieved, so as to realize the tuning of different phases. Due to the variety of microstructure configurations of truss materials, it provides a broad space for the design of acoustic/elastic metasurfaces. In this paper, we design a new type of lattice truss material metasurfaces, which can adjust the phase 0–2π range of flexural wave by adjusting the vertex angle of single-cell without changing the external size of phononic crystal. According to the Generalized Snell's Law, the abnormal refraction, beam focusing and non-paraxial self-acceleration of flexural waves can be realized by reasonable arrangement of truss materials with different vertex angles. Moreover, the operating frequency domain of metasurfaces can be widened and adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of truss material microstructure arrays. This provides more possibilities for the design of elastic wave metasurfaces.
