AbstractThe ability to control wave and acoustic response by designing microarchitecture has led to the emergence of linear and nonlinear acoustic metamaterials and phononic crystals. While there has been great and growing interest in this area, much of the research has been performed with little cooperation on a large or national scale, and with little input from major funding establishments. The timing of the field is such that a great need exists to bring together members of multiple research communities (dynamical systems, mechanics of materials, MEMs, mathematics, physics, and others) and program managers from major funding sources (National Science Foundation, Army Research Office, Office of Naval Research, and others) to identify needs and research directions. Recognizing this need, the investigators will hold an inaugural AmeriMech Symposium on the Dynamic Response of Periodic Materials and Structures at the Georgia Institute of Technology in April, 2014. The symposium aims to bring together 40-50 junior and senior researchers working on periodic materials and structures in order to a) share recent and emerging developments in periodic structures and materials (cellular/lattice materials, acoustic metamaterials, phononic crystals); b) identify areas requiring new developments in theory, manufacturing technologies, and applications; and c) gather input from program managers on promising applications of periodic structures that are driven by national needs. The symposium is anticipated to have broad impacts on national funding priorities and research directions in the area of periodic structures and materials. Participant presentations and panel discussions will be shared amongst a diverse audience of stakeholders with the intent purpose of identifying research needs, directions, and promising applications. The assistance of NSF funds will be targeted at broadening the participation of the symposium attendees to younger researchers (Assistant Professors and Postdoctoral Researchers), graduate students, and underrepresented groups via grants waiving the symposium registration fee and covering limited travel expenses. This funding will supplement funds already received from the National Academies' US National Committee on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (USNCTAM), and matching funds committed by Georgia Tech and the University of British Columbia. Highlights from the symposium will be shared in electronic format on a dedicated symposium web page and distributed widely to participants, colleagues, and via requests from other interested parties.

摘要通过设计微架构来控制波和声响应的能力导致了线性和非线性声学超材料和声子晶体的出现。尽管人们对这一领域的兴趣日益浓厚，但大部分研究都是在很少有大规模或全国范围的合作的情况下进行的，也没有得到主要资助机构的投入。 该领域的时机非常成熟，因此非常需要将多个研究团体（动力系统、材料力学、MEM、数学、物理等）的成员和来自主要资金来源（国家科学基金会、陆军）的项目经理聚集在一起研究办公室、海军研究办公室等）以确定需求和研究方向。 认识到这一需求，研究人员将于 2014 年 4 月在佐治亚理工学院举办首届 AmeriMech 周期性材料和结构动态响应研讨会。该研讨会旨在汇聚 40-50 名从事周期性材料和结构研究的初级和高级研究人员。结构，以便 a) 分享周期性结构和材料（细胞/晶格材料、声学超材料、声子晶体）的最新和新兴发展； b) 确定理论、制造技术和应用方面需要新发展的领域； c) 收集项目管理人员对由国家需求驱动的周期性结构的有希望应用的投入。 预计该研讨会将对周期性结构和材料领域的国家资助优先事项和研究方向产生广泛影响。 参与者的演讲和小组讨论将在不同的利益相关者之间分享，其目的是确定研究需求、方向和有前景的应用。 NSF 资金的援助将旨在通过免除研讨会注册费和支付有限的旅行费用，将研讨会与会者的参与范围扩大到年轻研究人员（助理教授和博士后研究人员）、研究生和代表性不足的群体。 这笔资金将补充已从美国国家科学院理论与应用力学国家委员会 (USNCTAM) 收到的资金，以及佐治亚理工学院和不列颠哥伦比亚大学承诺的配套资金。 研讨会的要点将以电子格式在专门的研讨会网页上共享，并广泛分发给参与者、同事，并根据其他感兴趣方的请求分发。
