Abstract The Acoustic Black Hole (ABH) is a technique for passive vibration control that was
recently developed within the Structural Dynamics and Vibroacoustics communities. From a …

Mechanical metamaterials are man-made composite structures or materials constructed
from artificial microstructural units with extraordinary static/dynamic properties not found in …

Acoustic black hole (ABH) structures have been widely utilized for vibration suppression
owing to its tailored indentations according to a power-law profile. Compared with single …

Acoustic black hole (ABH) indentations on plates are very efficient to reduce high frequency
vibrations. However, when the wavelength of the impinging bending waves on the ABH is …

In this study, the periodic nested acoustic black hole phononic structure is presented, and
different complex band structures and corresponding evanescent Bloch wave propagation …

In this work we first propose a wave and Rayleigh–Ritz method (WRRM) to analyze the
vibrations of periodic systems. It is well-known that one of the main difficulties of the …

This paper proposes a strategy to broaden complete bandgap attenuating flexural and
longitudinal modes, and to shift them to lower frequencies by spatially folding designs …

Acoustic black holes (ABHs) have been found to exhibit desirable damping characteristics
for vibration attenuation of thin-walled structures. However, up until now, no research has …

Acoustic black holes (ABHs) attract increasing attention in the field of vibration suppression,
sound radiation control and energy harvesting. Though the ABH effect usually works well in …

We present the double-leaf acoustic black hole beam embedded mass oscillator, and
discuss the different elastic waves modulation effects. Vibration transmission spectrum …
