Propagation of flexural vibration in a ternary phononic crystal thin plate with a point defect are explored using finite element method. The thin concrete plate is composed of steel cylinders hemmed around by rubber with a square lattice. Absolute band gaps, point defect bands and transmission response curves with low frequency are investigated. Comparing the results of finite element method with that of improved plane wave expansion method, precise identifications are obtained to identify the point defect states. The results show that the finite element method is suitable for the exploring of flexural vibration propagating in ternary phononic crystal thin plates.

The band structures of flexural waves in a ternary locally resonant phononic crystal thin plate are studied using the improved plane wave expansion method. And the thin concrete plate composed of a square array of steel cylinders hemmed around by rubber is considered here. Absolute band gaps of flexural vibration with low frequency are shown. The calculation results show that the band gap width is strongly dependent on the filling fraction, the radius ratio, the mass density and the Young’s modulus contrasts between the core and the coating. So by changing these physical parameters, the required band gap could be obtained.

The aim of this study was to obtain bandgaps that are much better, that is at lower frequencies and in broader frequency ranges. Novel nonuniform metamaterial beams with periodically variable cross sections and inertial amplification mechanisms are designed and investigated by numerical and experimental methods. Flexural vibration equations of the nonuniform metamaterial beams are established, and the enhanced bandgap and vibration reduction properties are achieved by combining Bragg scattering and the inertial amplification mechanisms. Numerical results of the bandgaps for the periodic elastic beams with and without the inertial amplification mechanisms are validated by comparing them with the results of vibration experiments. Effects of the amplification mass and angle on the bandgap properties are investigated. Larger amplification mass and angle lead to much enhanced bandgap performances of the nonuniform metamaterial beams in lower to higher frequency ranges.

Plane wave expansion (PWE) method and finite element method (FEM) are applied to analyze the vibration reduction characteristic of the phononic crystal structural plate, and the results of two methods are consistent. The range of band gap is acquired, which certain frequent elastic wave propagation is forbidden.

Based on the finite element method, the propagation of flexural vibration in a binary phononic crystal thick plate with a point defect is studied. The plate is composed of a square array of concrete cylinders embedded in the rubber matrix. Complete band structure and frequency response function of this perfect thick plate indicates the existence of low-frequency absolute band gap. Detailed investigations have been carried out to study the dependence of the width of absolute band gap on both structural and material parameters. For the point defect, the defect modes are localized around the defect, and the frequency and the number of the defect bands are significantly dependent on the filling fraction, the size and the mass density of the defect cylinder. To better support the statement of the defect band structures, we also represent the frequency response function of the propagation of flexural vibration in the thick plate with a point defect. Based on the detailed investigations, both the absolute band gap and the defect bands of a binary thick plate could be modulated with appropriate parameters. It may be useful to vibration control in engineering structure.

In this study, an interconnected metamaterial was proposed to suppress flexural vibration. The interconnected metamaterial can improve the manufacturing and installation processes in terms of convenience because it can be fabricated in the form of a modular multi-celled structure with a single-phase material. To evaluate the vibration reduction performance of the metamaterial, stopband analysis was performed, as it solves an iterative eigenvalue problem for the wave vector domain. In order to identify the Bloch mode that contributes to flexural vibration, a concept to extract the Bloch mode based on the modal strain energy was proposed. The vibration-reduction performance of the interconnected metamaterial was numerically verified by using a frequency-response analysis of the multi-celled structure. The interconnected metamaterial proposed in this study was fabricated by using a 3D printer. Finally, the vibration-reduction performance of the multi-celled structure was experimentally verified by using impact testing.

In this paper, propagation of flexural vibration in phononic crystal thin plates with straight, bending or branching linear defects are explored using finite element method. The plate is composed of an array of circular crystalline Al2O3 cylinders embedded periodically in the epoxy matrix with a square lattice. The numerical results showed that accurate band structures and transmission response curves could be obtained by finite element method compared with that of improved plane wave expansion method. The exploration indicated that finite element method is efficient and suitable in dealing with the wave propagation in phononic crystal, and displays potential abilities in dealing with complex structures.
