We construct a two-dimensional mechanical wave machine based on a hexagonal lattice to investigate low-frequency flexural plate waves whose propagation mimicks a topological quantum valley Hall system. We thereby demonstrate “mechanical graphene” by extension of the one-dimensional Shive wave machine to two dimensions. Imaging experiments, backed up by simulations, reveal the presence of boundary modes along a topological interface. This work provides an alternative route for the investigation of topological phononic crystals, and should lead to new insights into the design and observation of artificial phononic structures. |
