When waves are moving across ice-covered seas, they can cause sheets of ice to bend and ultimately break. Understanding the ...

Engineers have created a device that generates incredibly tiny, earthquake-like vibrations on a microchip—and it could transform future electronics. Using a new kind of “phonon laser,” the team can ...

Surface wave seismology has emerged as a critical tool in the investigation of the Earth’s near‐surface structure. Dispersion analysis, which examines the frequency‐dependent velocity of surface waves ...

Ocean waves possess enough energy to meet global energy needs multiple times over, offering a massive potential source of clean, baseload power. Recent scientific research explores the interaction of ...

Bloch surface waves are electromagnetic modes confined to the interface of one‐dimensional photonic crystals, where a periodic arrangement of dielectric materials creates an optical band gap that ...
