In this research, the negative effective mass behavior of elastic/mechanical metamaterials is exhibited by a cantilever-in-mass structure as a proposed design for creating frequency stopping band gaps ...

In analysis, it is common practice to conceptualize structures, objects, and isolation systems as basic mass-spring-damper models, as depicted in Figure 42.1. All objects experience vibration when ...

In deep coal mines, roadway supports endure intense impact ground pressure from rock bursts, severely challenging the load-bearing capacity of underground support equipment. Yet, research on the ...
