Dynamic Localization Phenomena in Elasticity, Acoustics and Electromagnetism

• Modeling microstructured media: periodic systems and effective media.- Multiscale models of electromagnetic and plasmonic metamaterials.- Explicit models for surface, interfacial and edge elastic wave.- Elastodynamic end effects in structural mechanics.- Trapped modes and edge resonances in acoustics and elasticity.- Surface waves in elastic half spaces coated with crystalline films.

From the book reviews:“The lecture notes cover a wide range of subjects and techniques related to dynamic localization phenomena … . The basic concepts and updated information from research on the arguments under consideration are given together with numerous references. The book is addressed to graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and researchers in mechanical, aerospace and civil engineering, and it should be of interest to physicists, researchers in mechanics and applied mathematicians.” (Stan Chiriţă, Mathematical Reviews, September, 2014)
