Abstract
Seismic metamaterials (SMs) possess bandgap characteristics, enabling effective attenuation of seismic waves within a specific frequency range. However, small-sized SMs typically struggle to achieve a wide low-frequency bandgap. This paper proposes four types of SMs. The dispersion curves of these models were analyzed, and their vibration modes were studied to elucidate the bandgap mechanism. To investigate the influence of structural parameters on the bandgap, geometric variables are analyzed. Subsequently, the spectrum and acceleration time history curves of Lamb waves in a finite SM system are analyzed to verify the bandgap's authenticity. The designed structure exhibits a bandgap ranging from 1.24 Hz to 16.86 Hz, with a relative bandwidth as high as 172.6% and over 96% maximum vibration displacement attenuation of the El Centro seismic wave. The designed SMs effectively cover the 2 Hz seismic peak spectrum that leads to structural damage. They possess ideal relative bandwidth and excellent isolation performance, further advancing the engineering application of SMs.
地震超材料（SM）具有带隙特性，可在特定频率范围内有效衰减地震波。然而，小尺寸超材料通常难以实现较宽的低频带隙。本文提出了四种 SM。分析了这些模型的频散曲线，并研究了它们的振动模式，以阐明带隙机制。为了研究结构参数对带隙的影响，本文分析了几何变量。随后，分析了有限 SM 系统中 Lamb 波的频谱和加速度时间历史曲线，以验证带隙的真实性。设计结构的带隙范围为 1.24 Hz 至 16.86 Hz，相对带宽高达 172.6%，对 El Centro 地震波的最大振动位移衰减超过 96%。所设计的 SM 能有效覆盖导致结构损坏的 2 Hz 地震峰值频谱。它们具有理想的相对带宽和优异的隔离性能，进一步推动了 SM 的工程应用。
