Modeling wave dispersion and band gaps in heterogeneous elastic media

In this paper we report recent developments and results concerning validation of the homogenization approach applied in modeling waves in strongly heterogeneous elastic media. The homogenization limit model is obtained for stationary waves, but can also be used to estimate dispersion properties for...
