The computer revolution coming by way of data provides an innovative approach for the
design of phononic crystals (PnCs) and elastic metamaterials (EMs). By establishing an …

This study aims to theoretically and numerically investigate the dispersion relations of
Rayleigh waves propagating through vertical oscillators periodically distributed on stratified …

The construction of the underground section of the Chengdu-Zigong High-speed Railway,
the fastest underground railway worldwide with a design speed of 350 km/h, has attracted …

Locally resonant metamaterials (LRMs), with unit-cells exhibiting local resonance, present
extraordinary wave propagation properties as a result of their spatial periodicity. However …

A novel method based on waveguide modal analysis is presented to evaluate the
effectiveness in terms of frequency bandgaps of bounded periodic metamaterials. The effect …

The filtering properties of a 2-dimensional (2D) periodic in-filled trench barrier system
subjected to anti-plane and in-plane moving loads are investigated separately by combining …

The attenuation property of periodic pile barriers for elastic-wave propagation in certain
direction induced by stationary loading sources has been extensively investigated …

The exotic wave phenomena in metastructures and their wide applications are one of the
