Abstract

A new formula for the effective quasistatic speed of sound cc in 2D and 3D periodic materials is reported. The approach uses a monodromy-matrix operator to enable direct integration in one of the coordinates and exponentially fast convergence in others. As a result, the solution for cc has a more closed form than previous formulas. It significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of evaluating cc for high-contrast composites as demonstrated by a 2D example with extreme behavior.
