Abstract

The vibration suppression performance of the pyramid lattice core sandwich plates is receiving increasing attention and needs further investigation for technical upgrading of potential engineering applications. Inspired by the localized resonant mechanism of the acoustic metamaterials and considering the integrity of the lattice sandwich plate, we reshaped a sandwich pyramid lattice core with resonant rings (SPLCRR). Finite element (FE) models are built up for the calculations of the dispersion curves and vibration transmission. The validity of the bandgap of the SPLCRR and remarkable vibration suppression are verified by experimental observations and the numerical methods. Furthermore, the effects of geometric parameters, material parameters and period parameters on the bandgaps of the SPLCRR are systematically investigated, which offers a deeper understanding of the underlying mechanism of bandgap and helps the SPLCRR structure meet the technological update requirements of practical engineering design.
