This special issue aims to publish original research contributions that explore both theoretical foundations and practical applications of topological acoustics and mechanics. A key focus will be on leveraging the geometric phase – an often underappreciated aspect of mechanical and acoustic waves – to address critical challenges across diverse domains.
Topic Areas
WE WELCOME SUBMISSIONS THAT DEMONSTRATE APPLICATIONS OF TOPOLOGICAL WAVES IN, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE FOLLOWING AREAS:
- Information science
- Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning
- Quantum and Physical Computing
- Robotics
- Telecommunications
- Sensing of the Natural and Built Environment
- Non-Destructive Evaluation
- Bioacoustics
Submission Instructions
Papers should be submitted electronically to the journal through the ASME Journal Tool. If you already have an account, log in as an author and select Submit Paper. If you do not have an account, you can create one here.Once at the Paper Submittal page, select the Journal of Vibration and Acoustics, and then under the Special Issue field, select Special Issue on Topological Mechanics: Exploiting Geometric Phase in Mechanical & Acoustic Waves.
Only submissions that meet the highest standards of quality and merit will undergo a rigorous peer-review process. Papers accepted with minor revisions will be considered for inclusion in the special issue of JVA.
Papers received after the deadline or papers not selected for the Special Issue may be accepted for publication in a regular issue.
