| contents | Electro-momentum coupling in piezoelectric metamaterials with broken inversion symmetry enables asymmetric elastic wave transport by linking macroscopic electric fields to momentum, an effect analogous to Willis coupling in elastic media. A one-dimensional layered piezoelectric metamaterial integrated with shunt circuits, consisting of a resistor, inductor, and strain-proportional voltage feedback gain, is proposed to achieve dynamic control of frequency-dependent stiffness and damping through electromechanical interactions. Tuning the circuit parameters yields direction-dependent wave scattering at targeted frequencies. Dynamic homogenization reveals macroscopic constitutive relations exhibiting both Willis and electro-momentum couplings. Non-Hermitian exceptional points are identified, where scattering eigenmodes coalesce and produce extreme asymmetries in wave response. Near these points, the system realizes unidirectional zero reflection (UZR) and unidirectional perfect absorption (UPA), achieving complete absorption from one direction and total reflection from the opposite side. The findings demonstrate a compact and reconfigurable platform for tunable, directional elastic wave control using passive-active hybrid metamaterials, opening new avenues for programmable devices in acoustic isolation, wave-based computing, sensing, and energy manipulation in solid media. |
