Abstract

Journal of Vibration and Control, Ahead of Print.
Rail dampers are longitudinally installed along the track, leading to high moment of inertia effects in the high-frequency band. The metamaterial properties resulting from the periodic installation of rail dampers while considering the moment of inertia ...
