Abstract
The coupling between material nonlinearity and dispersion/dissipation may lead to the emergence of solitary waves, which are disturbances that can propagate far away with constant velocity and fixed profile. In this paper, we present a brief review of solitary waves, concentrating on their propagation in nonlinear metamaterials with different aspects. In particular, we revisit the propagation characteristics of solitary waves in granular crystals, flexible metamaterials, multistable metamaterials, and high-dimensional metamaterials. We end the review paper with our outlook, emphasizing several potential directions that wait to be further explored and deeply understood.
期刊介绍：
Mechanics Research Communications publishes, as rapidly as possible, peer-reviewed manuscripts of high standards but restricted length. It aims to provide:
• a fast means of communication
• an exchange of ideas among workers in mechanics
• an effective method of bringing new results quickly to the public
• an informal vehicle for the discussion
• of ideas that may still be in the formative stages
The field of Mechanics will be understood to encompass the behavior of continua, fluids, solids, particles and their mixtures. Submissions must contain a strong, novel contribution to the field of mechanics, and ideally should be focused on current issues in the field involving theoretical, experimental and/or applied research, preferably within the broad expertise encompassed by the Board of Associate Editors. Deviations from these areas should be discussed in advance with the Editor-in-Chief.
