SAM 2019: Symposium on Acoustic Metamaterials

From October 9, 2019 to October 11, 2019

ISCHIA - ITALIE
The second edition of the "Symposium on Acoustic Metamaterials" (SAM) will be held from 9th to 11th October 2019 in Ischia (Italy) and organised by YRAM (Young Researchers in Acoustic Metamaterials), DENORMS CA 15125 and University of Salerno.

This Symposium on Acoustic Metamaterials is targeted to PhD candidates, Early Career Investigators (i.e. researcher whose career spun less than 8 years since the date of the PhD) and aims at sharing new advances and breakthroughs as well as fostering the community of young researchers in the field of acoustic metamaterials. The second SAM will be organised around 6 different sessions comprising 20 min talks and plenary lectures.

Among others, addressed topics will be related to:

Acoustic/elastic metamaterials and phononic crystals,
Acoustic/elastic metasurfaces,
Non-reciprocal manipulation of acoustic/elastic waves,
Acoustic/elastic meta-devices based on transformation acoustics, parity-time symmetric acoustics, topological acoustics,
Novel physical concepts for harnessing acoustic/elastic waves,
New applications of metamaterial-based functional devices for acoustic sensing, cloaking, imaging, absorption, energy harvesting,
...
