Effective-medium theory for finite-size aggregates.
We propose an effective-medium theory for random aggregates of small spherical particles that accounts for the finite size of the embedding volume. The technique is based on the identification of the first two orders of the Born series within a finite volume for the coherent field and the effective field. Although the convergence of the Born series requires a finite volume, the effective consta...
متن کاملEffective medium theory for anisotropic metamaterials
Materials with anisotropic material parameters can be utilized to fabricate many fascinating devices, such as hyperlenses, metasolids, and one-way waveguides. In this study, we analyze the effects of geometric anisotropy on a two-dimensional metamaterial composed of a rectangular array of elliptic cylinders and derive an effective medium theory for such a metamaterial. We find that it is possib...
متن کاملEffective medium theory for elastic composites
The theoretical foundation of a variant on effective medium theories for elastic constants of composites is presented and discussed. The connection between this approach and the methods of Zeller and Dederichs, Korringa, and Gubernatis and Krumhansl is elucidated. A review of the known relationships between the various effective medium theories and rigorous bounding methods for elastic constant...
متن کاملCurrent-driven homogenization and effective medium parameters for finite samples
Reflection and refraction of electromagnetic waves by artificial periodic composites (metamaterials) can be accurately modeled by an effective medium theory only if the boundary of the medium is explicitly taken into account and the two effective parameters of the medium (the index of refraction and the impedance) are correctly determined. Theories that consider infinite periodic composites do ...
متن کاملFinite-size corrections to scaling behavior in sorted cell aggregates.
Cell sorting is a widespread phenomenon pivotal to the early development of multicellular organisms. In vitro cell sorting studies have been instrumental in revealing the cellular properties driving this process. However, these studies have as yet been limited to two-dimensional analysis of three-dimensional cell sorting events. Here we describe a method to record the sorting of primary zebrafi...
