Resumo

The study of mono-coupled periodic structures has gained renewed interest by the scientific community due to the new applications of metamaterials and meta-structures. Much research has focused on the wave propagation properties of infinite structures. However, this paper focuses on finite periodic structures, in particular the parameters that govern the behaviour of a low frequency stop-band of such a structure. From an engineering perspective, these are the lower and upper cut-off frequencies, i.e., the bandwidth, and the minimum transmission of vibration within the band. Using the Caley-Hamilton theorem, analytical expressions are derived for the receptance, dynamic stiffness and transmissibility of a finite mono-coupled structure. It is shown that the properties of the whole structure can be determined from the transmissibility of a single element. If the element is symmetric, then the expressions describing the stop-band are particularly simple. An approximate analytical expression has been derived that allows the number of elements needed for a given maximum attenuation in a low frequency stop-band to be determined. To illustrate the approach, lumped parameter systems are considered, in which the stop-band behaviour is governed by the addition of mass, stiffness and a vibration absorber. Expressions are derived for the maximum vibration attenuation within the first stop-band, for each case, enabling clear physical insight into the controlling parameters. Expressions are provided for the lower and upper cut-off frequencies of the stop-band. Some experimental results are also presented to support the theoretical analysis.
