A high order homogenization model for transient dynamics of heterogeneous media including micro-inertia effects
A new high order homogenization model for modeling dispersion in heterogeneous materials. The model can interrogate the full range of impedance contrast for microstructure-induced dispersion. Standard C0 continuity finite elements are used to capture the micro-inertia effects. Phononic bands  frequency bands within which micro-inertia effects block wave propagation  are predicted.
