Tuning the decay of sound in a viscous metamaterial (open access)

Tuning the decay of sound in a viscous metamaterial

Authors of the article use analytical results for viscous dissipation in phononic crystals to calculate the decay coefficient of a sound wave propagating at low frequencies through a two-dimensional phononic crystal with a viscous fluid background. They claim that the decay coefficient exhibits dependence on the direction of propagation; that is, a homogenized phononic crystal behaves like an anisotropic viscous fluid.

Unusual Mathematical Approaches Untangle Nervous Dynamics (open access)

Unusual Mathematical Approaches Untangle Nervous Dynamics

Article reports that the massive amount of available neurodata suggests the existence of a mathematical backbone underlying neuronal oscillatory activities. The authors assert that the Monge’s theorem might contribute to our visual ability of depth perception and the brain connectome can be tackled in terms of tunnelling nanotubes.
