Acoustic waves are the physical manifestation of
mechanical vibrations traveling through a medium. These wave propagations can
be described with physical attributes, such as phase, wavelength, amplitude,
and velocity. The velocity of an acoustic wave can be determined by two material
properties of the propagation medium: the bulk modulus and the density.
Specifically, the squared phase velocity of an acoustic wave equals the bulk
modulus multiplied by the inverse of the density. For all natural medium,
positive bulk modulus and density are observed. The recent development of acoustic metamaterials
demonstrate media that exhibit either a negative bulk modulus, a negative
density, or both negative bulk modulus and negative density. As the fundamental
physics of these metamaterials become better understood, researchers are
beginning to develop applications of these materials
