Abstract

The current manuscript reports the outcome of investigations on the phononic properties of a chiral cellular structure. The considered geometry features in-plane hexagonal symmetry, whereby circular nodes are connected through 6 ligaments tangent to the nodes themselves. In-plane wave propagation is analyzed through the application of Bloch theorem, which is employed to predict two-dimensional dispersion relations as well as illustrate dispersion properties unique to the considered chiral configuration. Attention is devoted to determining the influence of unit cell geometry on dispersion, band-gap occurrence and wave directionality. Results suggest cellular lattices as potential building blocks for the design of metamaterials of interest for acoustic wave guiding applications
