Advances in material architectures have enabled endowing materials with exotic attributes not commonly available in the conventional realm of mechanical engineering. Twisting, a mechanism whereby metamaterials are used to transform static axial load into twist motion, is of particular interest to this study. Herein, computations based on the finite element method, corroborated by a theoretical approach derived from applying Lagrange’s equations to a monoatomic spring-mass system, are employed to explore the longitudinal-twist (L-T) conversion exhibited by a chiral tetragonal-beam metamaterial. Firstly, we perform an eigenvalue analysis taking into account the polarization states to highlight the contribution of the longitudinal mode in the L-T conversion. We contrast the twisting behavior of the chiral cell with that of other homogeneous medium, octagonal-tube, and non-chiral cells. Moreover, we demonstrate the influence of the cell’s chirality on the L-T conversion using both time-domain and frequency-domain studies. The findings indicate that at least a portion of the longitudinally propagating wave is transformed into twist throughout a broad frequency range and even quasi-totally converted at distinct frequencies. |
