Abstract

We present the theoretical investigation on the flexural wave propagation and vibration attenuation characteristics in a Euler–Bernoulli beam-type metastructure with double-sides inertial amplified resonators. Based on Bloch theory, the dispersion relation and propagation characteristics of flexural waves are calculated by the spectral element method. The influences of system parameters on the flexural wave attenuation of the proposed beam-type metastructures are analyzed. Results show that broadband low-frequency flexural wave attenuation can be achieved by the proposed double-sides beam-type metastructures. The tunability of flexural wave band gap and vibration suppression performance significantly enhances. In addition, the low-frequency flexural wave band gap can be effectively modulated and optimized by changing the system parameters.
