Through the application of layer potential techniques and Gohberg-Sigal theory we derive an original formula for the Minnaert resonance frequencies of arbitrarily shaped bubbles. We also provide a mathematical justification for the monopole approximation of scattering of acoustic waves by bubbles at their Minnaert resonant frequency. Our results are complemented by several numerical examples which serve to validate our formula in two dimensions.Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC2000): 35R30, 35C20.
The aim of this paper is to show both analytically and numerically the existence of a subwavelength phononic bandgap in bubble phononic crystals. The key is an original formula for the quasi-periodic Minnaert resonance frequencies of an arbitrarily shaped bubble. The main findings in this paper are illustrated with a variety of numerical experiments.Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC2000): 35R30, 35C20.
The aim of this paper is to provide a mathematical and numerical framework for the analysis and design of bubble meta-screens. An acoustic meta-screen is a thin sheet with patterned subwavelength structures, which nevertheless has a macroscopic effect on the acoustic wave propagation. In this paper, periodic subwavelength bubbles mounted on a reflective surface (with Dirichlet boundary condition) is considered. It is shown that the structure behaves as an equivalent surface with Neumann boundary condition at the Minnaert resonant frequency which corresponds to a wavelength much greater than the size of the bubbles. Analytical formula for this resonance is derived. Numerical simulations confirm its accuracy and show how it depends on the ratio between the periodicity of the lattice, the size of the bubble, and the distance from the reflective surface. The results of this paper formally explain the super-absorption behavior observed in [V. Leroy et al., Phys. Rev. B, 2015].Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC2000): 35R30, 35C20.
The recent development of subwavelength photonic and phononic crystals shows the possibility of controlling wave propagation at deep subwavelength scales. Subwavelength bandgap phononic crystals are typically created using a periodic arrangement of subwavelength resonators, in our case small gas bubbles in a liquid. In this work, a waveguide is created by modifying the sizes of the bubbles along a line in a dilute two-dimensional bubbly crystal, thereby creating a line defect. Our aim is to prove that the line defect indeed acts as a waveguide; waves of certain frequencies will be localized to, and guided along, the line defect. The key result is an original formula for the frequencies of the defect modes. Moreover, these frequencies are numerically computed using the multipole method, which numerically illustrates our main results.Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC2000). 35R30, 35C20.
This paper aims at understanding the nature of the subwavelength resonant frequencies of dielectric particles with high refractive indices. It is proved that for an arbitrary shaped particle, these subwavelength resonant frequencies can be expressed in terms of the eigenvalues of the Newtonian potential associated with its shape. The enhancement of the scattered field at the resonant frequencies is shown. The hybridization of the subwavelength resonant frequencies of a dimer consisting of high refractive index dielectric nanoparticles is also characterized.
