Abstract
Rayleigh wave isolation using metamaterials is a research hotspot in the engineering community, yet the development of relevant mitigation methods remains an open and challenging problem. Herein, we propose a new type of metasurface, known as an engineered metagrating, which is a special metasurface buried in soil and plays a role in shielding surface Rayleigh waves. Moreover, the total omnidirectional reflection characteristics and subwavelength properties exhibited by the proposed metasurface provide a more flexible reference for surface Rayleigh wave mitigation measures in practical engineering applications. This work can open new avenues for controlling the propagation of seismic surface waves.
