Abstract

Journal of Vibration and Control, Ahead of Print.
Metastructures, developed using local resonant arrays, show very effective attenuation behavior at low frequencies in vibroacoustic applications. This study sheds light on metastructures built out of periodically supported Euler-Bernoulli beams as host ...
