Abstract
In this work, a new type of metasurface which could be applied for surface waves attenuation is numerically examined. Terraced slopes are examined numerically for their applicability of attenuating surface waves. The calculations were performed by using the finite element method. The research includes an investigation for all the geometric parameters of the structure, and how its performance as a metasurface is being affected by the values of each parameter. The proposed terraced slopes can be found in many places either as a natural morphology of the ground or, in most cases, as an artificial ground formation. The findings of this work strongly indicate that the morphology of the sloped surface is fundamental regarding its potential of performing as a large-scale natural metasurface.
