An improved plane wave expansion method (IPWEM) is deduced by the combination of a dynamic differential equation, the Bloch theory and Fourier expansion. The IPWEM is proposed to improve the convergence of the conventional plane wave expansion method (CPWEM) in dealing with large band gaps in phononic crystals. The IPWEM is supported by the experiments: bend waves transmitting through a 2D phononic crystal. The numerical simulations show that the IPWEM has better prediction precision and higher efficiency compared to the CPWEM, in searching for large band gaps in phononic crystals..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
