abstract = "In this paper we will investigate non-reciprocal wave propagation in Timoshenko beams,
due to space and time modulation of its elastic properties. To that end, an analytical approach
is used: the Bloch theorem is applied when choosing the solution form for displacement
components and the angle of rotation, which figure in the equations of motion along with the
elastic properties. Also, the Fourier expansion is used to express the periodic nature of the
modulation. By solving the eigenvalue problem for different modulation parameters, we obtain
the band diagrams which can be used to analyze the directionality of wave propagation. These
diagrams clearly represent the breakage of symmetry as a consequence of modulation. Thus, a
modulated beam behaves as a kind of metamaterial, in which one-way propagation of elastic
waves is possible. When shear and rotational effects are neglected, these results converge to
the results for the Euler-Bernoulli beam, which are already present in scientific literature.",
