Self-controlled wave propagation in hyperelastic media
Abstract We demonstrate theoretically that an ultrasonic wave propagating in a hyperelastic medium can self-control its phase velocities. This phenomenon occurs because the propagation of the ultrasonic wave generates acoustic radiation stresses in the medium, which can induce large deformation of t...
