PID-like active impedance control for electroacoustic resonators to design tunable single-degree-of-freedom sound absorbers

Hervé Lissek, Maxime Volery, Xinxin Guo

Sound absorption at low frequencies still remains a challenge in both scientific research and engineering practice. Natural porous materials are ineffective in this frequency range, as well as acoustic resonators which present too narrow bandwidth of absor ...

Effects of resonator geometry and substrate stiffness on the tunability of a deformable microwave metasurface

Taha Goudarzi, Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Rayehe Karimi Mahabadi

Tunable metasurfaces can shift their resonant frequency through different approaches, one of which is applying mechanical deformations. Here, we show the effects of two key factors on the tunability of deformable metasurfaces; the resonator geometry and su ...

Enhancing the beamwidth of low profile single-fed microstrip antennas using parasitic elements

Anja Skrivervik, Ismael Vico Triviño

In this paper we present a technique to broaden the beamwidth of conventional patch microstrip antennas by using parasitic elements. This technique allows to keep the main advantages of microstrip antennas while increasing their beamwidth. We provide guide ...

Dynamical Control of Nuclear Isomer Depletion via Electron Vortex Beams

Fabrizio Carbone, Simone Gargiulo

Some nuclear isomers are known to store a large amount of energy over long periods of time, with a very high energy-to-mass ratio. Here, we describe a protocol to achieve the external control of the isomeric nuclear decay by using electron vortex beams who ...
