The band structure and transmission coefficient of the two-dimensional ternary locally resonant phononic crystal are computed by the finite element method with the calculated frequency up to 120 kHz.The band gap in the high frequency range is found and considered as the Bragg band gap in the locally resonant phononic crystal which has the locally resonant band gap in the low frequency range normally.Then,a composite phononic crystal by hybridizing the Bragg scattering phononic crystal and the locally resonant phononic crystal is proposed.Simultaneous Bragg and locally resonant band gaps are displayed and discussed for the composite phononic crystal.The results show that the simultaneous Bragg band gap and locally resonant band gap can be tuned.
Thermal transport in a highly porous metallic wire-woven bulk Kagome （WBK） is numerically and analytically modeled. Based on topology similarity and upon introducing an elongation parameter in thermal tortuosity, an idealized Kagome with non-twisted struts is employed. Special focus is placed upon quanti- fying the effect of topological anisotropy of WBK upon its effective conductivity. It is demonstrated that the effective conductivity reduces linearly as the poros- ity increases, and the extent of the reduction is significantly dependent on the orientation of WBK. The governing physical mechanism of anisotropic thermal transport in WBK is found to be the anisotropic thermal tortuosity caused by the intrinsic anisotropic topology of WBK.
