Abstract
This is part 2 of the theme issue on ‘Wave generation and transmission in multi-scale complex media and structured metamaterials’. It is focused on the analysis of wave scattering and wave localization in complex media, including acoustic and elastic waves, vibrations in viscoelastic media, and pulsating flows associated with waves in fluids, with an interesting range of industrial applications as well as ideas linked to biomechanics and the mechanics of metamaterials. The volume is logically connected to part 1 of the theme issue, and the two parts are mutually complementary in their presentation of the state of the art in the areas of mathematical modelling, experimental assessment and industrial applications of wave generation and control, in the context of the dynamic response of multi-scale waveguides and a new generation of metamaterials. We would like to pay tribute to our colleague Dr Rabindra Kumar Bhattacharyya, who sadly passed away on 23 May 2021 and whose ideas were inspirational in the preparation of the theme issue.
