Abstract
The wave impeding board (WIB) is frequently integrated beneath dynamic machinery, tracks, and subgrades to counteract vibrations emanating from artificial sources. However, conventional WIBs have exhibited a limited isolation frequency band due to their dependence on the soil cut-off frequency of soil. Furthermore, the vibration sources typically encompass intricate frequency components spanning low, medium, and high frequencies. To overcome the technical limitations of WIBs relying on the cut-off frequency of soil, a new periodic structural wave impeding board (PSWIB) is proposed based on the principles of phononic crystals. Theoretical and numerical analyses demonstrate that PSWIB exhibits bandgap characteristics, with the attenuation range achieved by finite periodic structures aligning with the bandgap of an infinite PSWIB. Maximum amplitude reductions of 47 dB and 65 dB are achieved within the vibration attenuation range. Compared to traditional WIB, PSWIB surpasses the constraints imposed by the cut-off frequency of soil and allow for the design of constituent parameters based on the characteristics of the vibration source, enabling effective isolation of the target frequency vibrations.
