The fourth edition of the "Symposium on Acoustic Metamaterials" (SAM) will be held in Aegina, Greece, from May 15^th to 18^th, 2024.

This Symposium on Acoustic Metamaterials is mainly dedicated to Ph.D. students and Early Career Investigators  (i.e. researcher whose career spun less than 8 years since the date of the PhD) and aims at sharing new advances and breakthroughs as well as fostering the community of young researchers in the field of acoustic metamaterials. The fourth SAM will be organised around 6 different sessions comprising 20 min talks and plenary lectures.

Among others, addressed topics will be related to:

• Acoustic/elastic metamaterials and phononic crystals,
• Acoustic/elastic metasurfaces,
• Non-reciprocity, parity-time symmetry and temporal modulation for the manipulation of acoustic/elastic waves,
• Non-linear, non-Hermitian and topological acoustic/elastic systems,
• New applications of metamaterial-based functional devices for acoustic sensing, cloaking, imaging, absorption, insulation, energy harvesting.
  

Participation fees for presenters/attendees at the Symposium: 250.00€.

This fee covers 3 lunches + morning and afternoon catering + Thursday's guided tour of To Be Confirmed + social event from 15th May 2024 to 18th May 2024.

About the previous editions of SAM

The 1st SAM was held in Xàtiva (Spain) from 7th to 9th November 2018, and was co-organized by YRAM, the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) and COST Action DENORMS (CA 15225). It was the first YRAM action to foster the community of young researchers in the field of Acoustic and Elastic metamaterial. It brought together 70 people, mainly ECIs. The scientific concert, open to all Xatìva inhabitants, and espacially children, was a great success. The concert hall was fully booked.

The 2nd SAM was held in Ischia (Italy) from 9th to 11th October 2019, and was co-organized by YRAM, the University of Salerno and COST Action DENORMS. It brought together 70 people from around the world, of which many ECIs. A scientific popularization event on Acoustics Through Movies was held. The scientific event, open to all Ischia inhabitants, was a great success counting over a hundred participants.

The 3rd SAM was held in Nîmes (France) from 19th to 22nd October 2022, and was solely organized by YRAM. Not less than 75 people from around the world attended the event,with ECIs. A scientific popularization exhibition on Acoustics Metamaterials through Comic Books was proposed in the Centre Carré d'Arts of Nîmes. The exhibition was opened to public for 1.5 months, and many schools came for a guided tour given by members of YRAM the week of the event. It was a great success counting over a thousand of visitors.
