Abstract
The paper presents a numerical investigation of an elastic metamaterial, i.e., a one-dimensional elastic waveguide, equipped with nonlocal (long-range) and nonlinear interactions. The dynamic behavior of the newly defined structure is described by nonlinear integro-differential equation of motion. Numerical simulations, comparing the linearized model and the nonlinear one, unveil the arising of wave-stopping and backward propagation phenomena.
