• Authors: Lingxiao Yuan, Emma Lejeune, Harold S. Park,
• Abstract summary: This paper defines several design spaces for chiral metamaterials, including the ligament contact angles, the ligament shape, and circle radius. We then leverage machine learning approaches, and specifically Bayesian optimization, to determine optimally performing designs satisfying maximal non-reciprocity or stiffness asymmetry. Our analysis of the underlying mechanisms reveals that chiral metamaterials that can display multiple different contact states under loading in different directions are able to simultaneously exhibit both high non-reciprocity and stiffness asymmetry.

• Abstract: There has been significant recent interest in the mechanics community to design structures that can either violate reciprocity, or exhibit elastic asymmetry or odd elasticity. While these properties are highly desirable to enable mechanical metamaterials to exhibit novel wave propagation phenomena, it remains an open question as to how to design passive structures that exhibit both significant non-reciprocity and elastic asymmetry. In this paper, we first define several design spaces for chiral metamaterials leveraging specific design parameters, including the ligament contact angles, the ligament shape, and circle radius. Having defined the design spaces, we then leverage machine learning approaches, and specifically Bayesian optimization, to determine optimally performing designs within each design space satisfying maximal non-reciprocity or stiffness asymmetry. Finally, we perform multi-objective optimization by determining the Pareto optimum and find chiral metamaterials that simultaneously exhibit high non-reciprocity and stiffness asymmetry. Our analysis of the underlying mechanisms reveals that chiral metamaterials that can display multiple different contact states under loading in different directions are able to simultaneously exhibit both high non-reciprocity and stiffness asymmetry. Overall, this work demonstrates the effectiveness of employing ML to bring insights to a novel domain with limited prior information, and more generally will pave the way for metamaterials with unique properties and functionality in directing and guiding mechanical wave energy.

  Inherent symmetry of a quantum system may protect its otherwise fragile states. We implement the one-dimensional kicked Ising model which exhibits non-local Majorana edge modes (MEMs) with $mathbbZ$ parity symmetry. MEMs are found to be resilient against certain symmetry-breaking noise owing to a prethermalization mechanism.
