We outline some recent research advances on the control of elastic waves in thin and thick plates, that have occurred since the large scale experiment [Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 133901, 2014] that demonstrated significant interaction of surface seismic waves with holes structuring sedimentary soils at the meter scale. We further investigate the seismic wave trajectories in soils structured with buildings. A significant substitution of soils by inclusions, acting as foundations, raises the question of the effective dynamic properties of these structured soils. Buildings, in the case of perfect elastic conditions for both soil and buildings, are shown to interact and strongly influence elastic surface waves; such site-city seismic interactions were pointed out in [Bulletin of Seismological Society of America 92, 794-811, 2002], and we investigate a variety of scenarios to illustrate the variety of behaviours possible.

An unconstrained, non-linearly elastic, semi-infinite solid is maintained in a state of large static plane strain. A power-law relation between the pre-stretches is assumed and it is shown that this assumption is well-motivated physically and is like
ly to describe the state of pre-stretch for a wide class of materials. A general class of strain-energy functions consistent with this assumption is derived. For this class of materials, the secular equation for incremental surface waves and the bifurcation condition for surface instability are shown to reduce to an equation involving only ordinary derivatives of the strain-energy equation. A compressible neo-Hookean material is considered as an example and it is found that finite compressibility has little quantitative effect on the speed of a surface wave and on the critical ratio of compression for surface instability.
In [AIP Advances 6, 121707 (2016)], a soil structured with concrete columns distributed within two specially designed seismic cloaks thanks to a combination of transformational elastodynamics and effective medium theory was shown to detour Rayleigh w
aves of frequencies lower than 10 Hz around a cylindrical region. The aforementioned studies motivate our exploration of interactions of surface elastic waves propagating in a thick plate (with soil parameters) structured with concrete pillars above it. Pillars are 40 m in height and the plate is 100 m in thickness, so that typical frequencies under study are below 1 Hz, a frequency range of particular interest in earthquake engineering. We demonstrate that three seismic cloaks allow for an unprecedented flow of elastodynamic energy. These designs are achieved by first computing ideal cloaks parameters deduced from a geometric transform in the Navier equations that leads to almost isotropic and symmetric elasticity (4th order) and density (2nd order) tensors. To do this we extend the theory of Non-Euclidean cloaking for light as proposed by the theoretical physicists Leonhardt and Tyc. In a second step, ideal heterogeneous nearly isotropic cloaks parameters are approximated by averaging elastic properties of sets of pillars placed at the nodes of a bipolar coordinate grid, which is an essential ingredient in our Non-Euclidean cloaking theory for elastodynamic waves. Cloaking effects are studied for a clamped obstacle (reduction of the disturbance of the wave wavefront and its amplitude behind a clamped obstacle). Protection is achieved through reduction of the wave amplitude within the center of the cloak.These results represent a first step towards designs of Non-Euclidean seismic cloaks for surface (Rayleigh and Love) waves propagating in semi-infinite elastic media structured with pillars.
A theory is presented showing that cloaking of objects from antiplane elastic waves can be achieved by elastic pre-stress of a neo-Hookean nonlinear elastic material. This approach would appear to eliminate the requirement of metamaterials with inhom
ogeneous anisotropic shear moduli and density. Waves in the pre-stressed medium are bent around the cloaked region by inducing inhomogeneous stress fields via pre-stress. The equation governing antiplane waves in the pre-stressed medium is equivalent to the antiplane equation in an unstressed medium with inhomogeneous and anisotropic shear modulus and isotropic scalar mass density. Note however that these properties are induced naturally by the pre-stress. Since the magnitude of pre-stress can be altered at will, this enables objects of varying size and shape to be cloaked by placing them inside the fluid-filled deformed cavity region.
In this paper, we present a semiclassical description of surface waves or modes in an elastic medium near a boundary, in spatial dimension three. The medium is assumed to be essentially stratified near the boundary at some scale comparable to the wav
e length. Such a medium can also be thought of as a surficial layer (which can be thick) overlying a half space. The analysis is based on the work of Colin de Verdi`ere on acoustic surface waves. The description is geometric in the boundary and locally spectral beneath it. Effective Hamiltonians of surface waves correspond with eigenvalues of ordinary differential operators, which, to leading order, define their phase velocities. Using these Hamiltonians, we obtain pseudodifferential surface wave equations. We then construct a parametrix. Finally, we discuss Weyls formulas for counting surface modes, and the decoupling into two classes of surface waves, that is, Rayleigh and Love waves, under appropriate symmetry conditions.
We show that long-range and robust acoustic pulling can be achieved by using a pair of one-way chiral surface waves supported on the interface between two phononic crystals composed of spinning cylinders with equal but opposite spinning velocities em
bedded in water. When the chiral surface mode with a relative small Bloch wave vector is excited, the particle located in the interface waveguide will scatter the excited surface mode to another chiral surface mode with a greater Bloch wave vector, resulting in an acoustic pulling force, irrespective of the size and material of the particle. Thanks to the backscattering immunity of the chiral surface waves against local disorders, the particle can be pulled following a flexible trajectory as determined by the shape of the interface. As such, this new acoustic pulling scheme overcomes some of the limitations of the traditional acoustic pulling using structured beams, such as short pulling distances, straight-line type pulling and strong dependence on the scattering properties of the particle. Our work may also inspire the application of topological acoustics to acoustic manipulations.
