The scientific interest in elastic and acoustic metamaterials / phononic crystals has witnessed a remarkable growth in recent years. This is due to their great potential to achieve unconventional dynamic and quasi-static behaviors, as well as to the advancement of the manufacturing techniques leading to increasingly complex designs ("architectures") spanning multiple scale lengths or allowing space and time modulation of the material properties. This symposium aims at gathering the experts in the field of elastic and acoustic metamaterials, discuss their recent development at multiple length scales (from the macro to the nano-scale), including the design, novel physics and application based on acoustic metamaterials.

Topics:

1. Architectured elastic and acoustic metamaterials / phononic crystals: design and practical applications
2. Airborne and underwater wave control via elastic and acoustic metamaterials / phononic crystals
3. Bio-inspired elastic and acoustic metamaterials / phononic crystals
4. Topological protection, non-Hermitian and nonreciprocal elastic and acoustic metamaterials / phononic crystals
5. Tunability and reconfigurability in elastic and acoustic metamaterials / phononic crystals
6. Nano-opto-electro-mechanical systems
