This $662,943 National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER: New Polarizations of Elastic Waves in Architected Materials project grant awarded to the University of Utah will support research to enable the design of dynamic systems capable of targeted functionalities such as vibration mitigation, ultrasonic imaging, and thermal phononic manipulation. The 5-year award will build the analytical, computational, and experimental foundations for three novel polarizations of elastic waves - non-paraxial spins, tensorial plane waves, and knotted modes - through the development of a new class of architected mechanical metamaterials. This research aims to expand the boundaries of wave mechanics and metamaterials, with the potential to enable tailored mechanical/phononic transfer of information and energy, and seed a new field of unconventional wave polarizations. The project integrates research and education activities to disseminate the societal benefits of wave mechanics and metamaterials, and spark interest in STEM fields among Native American students.
