Accumulation of energy by reactive elements is limited by the amplitude of time-harmonic external sources. In the steady-state regime, all incident power is fully reflected back to the source, and the stored energy does not increase in time, although the external source continuously supplies energy. Here, we show that this claim is not true if the reactive element is time-varying, and time-varying lossless loads of a transmission line or lossless metasurfaces can accumulate electromagnetic energy supplied by a time-harmonic source continuously in time without any theoretical limit. We analytically derive the required time dependence of the load reactance and show that it can be in principle realized as a series connection of mixers and filters. Furthermore, we prove that properly designing time-varying LC circuits one can arbitrarily engineer the time dependence of the current in the circuit fed by a given time-harmonic source. As an example, we theoretically demonstrate a circuit with a linearly increasing current through the inductor. Such LC circuits can accumulate huge energy from both the time-harmonic external source and the pump which works on varying the circuit elements in time. Finally, we discuss how this stored energy can be released in form of a time-compressed pulse.

A new fatigue life prediction method using the energy-based approach under uniaxial and multiaxial random loadings is proposed in this paper. One unique characteristic of the proposed method is that it uses time-derivative damage accumulation model c
ompared to the classical cycle-based damage accumulation model. Thus, damage under arbitrary random loading can be directly obtained using time-domain integration without cycle counting (e.g., rain-flow cycle counting method in classical fatigue analysis). First, a brief review of existing models is given focusing on their applicability to uniaxial/multiaxial, constant/random, and high cycle fatigue/low cycle fatigue loading regimes. It is observed that most existing models are only applicable to certain loading conditions and many of them are not applicable/validated under random loadings. Next, a time-derivative damage accumulation model under uniaxial random loading is proposed. The proposed damage function is inspired by a time-domain fatigue crack growth model. The fatigue life is obtained by integrating the damage function following random energy loading histories. Following this, an equivalent energy concept for general multiaxial loading conditions is used to convert the random multiaxial loading to an equivalent random uniaxial loading, where the time-derivative damage model can be used. Finally, the proposed model is validated with extensive experimental data from open literature and in-house testing data under various constant and random spectrum loadings. Conclusions and future work are suggested based on the findings from this study.
In this presentation, we analytically derive the dispersion equation for surface waves traveling along reactive boundaries which are periodically modulated in time. In addition, we show numerical results for the dispersion curves and importantly unco
ver that time-varying boundaries generate band gaps that can be controlled by engineering the modulation spectrum. Furthermore, we also point out an interesting effect of field amplification related to the existence of such band gaps for surface waves. The effect of amplification does not require the synchronization of signal and pumping waves. This unique property is very promising to be applied in surface-wave communications from microwave to optical frequencies.
Invariance under time translation (or stationarity) is probably one of the most important assumptions made when investigating electromagnetic phenomena. Breaking this assumption is expected to open up novel possibilities and result in exceeding conve
ntional limitations. For that, we primarily need to contemplate the fundamental principles and concepts from a nonstationarity perspective. Here, we revisit one of those concepts: The polarizability of a small particle, assuming that its properties vary in time. We describe the coupling of the induced dipole moment with the excitation field in a nonstationary, causal way, and introduce a complex-valued function, called temporal complex polarizability, for elucidating a nonstationary Hertzian dipole under time-harmonic illumination. This approach can be extended to any subwavelength particle having electric response. In addition, we also study the polarizability of a classical electron through the equation of motion whose damping coefficient and natural frequency are changing in time. We theoretically derive the effective permittivity corresponding to time-varying media (comprising free or bound electrons) and explicitly show the differences with the conventional macroscopic Drude-Lorentz model. This paper will hopefully pave the road towards the understanding of nonstationary scattering from small particles and the homogenization of time-varying materials, metamaterials, and metasurfaces.
The possibility of making an object invisible for detectors has become a topic of considerable interest over the past decades. Most of the studies so far focused on reducing the visibility by reshaping the electromagnetic scattering in the spatial do
main. In fact, by manipulating the electromagnetic scattering in the time domain, the visibility of an object can also be reduced. Importantly, unlike previous studies on phase-switched screens and time-varying metasurfaces, where the effect is narrow band due to the dispersive resonance, for microwave frequency range, we introduce a broadband switchable metasurface integrated with p-i-n diodes. The reflection phase of the metasurface can be changed by approximately {pi} over a fractional bandwidth of 76%. By modulating the metasurface quasirandomly in the time domain, the incident narrow-band signal is spread into a white-noiselike spectrum upon reflection, creating a spectral camouflage. The broadband feature of the proposed time-varying metasurface can provide practical insight for various applications, including radar stealth and ultrawide-band wireless communication.
Huygens metasurfaces have demonstrated almost arbitrary control over the shape of a scattered beam, however, its spatial profile is typically fixed at fabrication time. Dynamic reconfiguration of this beam profile with tunable elements remains challe
nging, due to the need to maintain the Huygens condition across the tuning range. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate that a time-varying metadevice which performs frequency conversion can steer transmitted or reflected beams in an almost arbitrary manner, with fully dynamic control. Our time-varying Huygens metadevice is made of both electric and magnetic meta-atoms with independently controlled modulation, and the phase of this modulation is imprinted on the scattered parametric waves, controlling their shapes and directions. We develop a theory which shows how the scattering directionality, phase and conversion efficiency of sidebands can be manipulated almost arbitrarily. We demonstrate novel effects including all-angle beam steering and frequency-multiplexed functionalities at microwave frequencies around 4 GHz, using varactor diodes as tunable elements. We believe that the concept can be extended to other frequency bands, enabling metasurfaces with arbitrary phase pattern that can be dynamically tuned over the complete 2pi range.
