Summary: | We introduce a new wave phenomenon, which can be observed in continuum and discrete systems, where a trapped mode exists under certain conditions, namely, the anti-localization of non-stationary linear waves. This is zeroing of the non-localized propagating component of the wave-field in a neighbourhood of an inclusion. In other words, it is a tendency for non-stationary waves to propagate avoiding a neighbourhood of an inclusion. The anti-localization is caused by a destructive interference of the harmonics involved into the representation of the solution in the form of a Fourier integral. The anti-localization is associated with the waves from the pass-band, whereas the localization related with a trapped mode is due to poles inside the stop-band. In the framework of a simple illustrative problem considered in the paper, we have demonstrated that the anti-localization exists for all cases excepting the boundary of the domain in the parameter space where the wave localization occurs. Thus, the anti-localization can be observed in the absence of the localization as well as together with the localization. We also investigate the influence of the anti-localization on the wave-field in whole. |
