Wave motion in a continuous elastic rod with a periodically attached inertial-amplification mechanism is investigated. The mechanism has properties similar to an "inerter" typically used in vehicle suspensions, however here it is…
The elastic wave propagation is investigated in the beam lattice material characterized by a square periodic cell with anti-tetrachiral microstructure. With reference to the Floquet-Bloch spectrum, focus is made on the band structure…
Floquet-Bloch wave asymptotics is used to homogenize the in-plane mechanical response of a periodic grillage of elastic Rayleigh rods, possessing a distributed mass density, together with rotational inertia. The grid is subject to…
This paper introduces a micro-lattice based metamaterial for low frequency wide-band vibration attenuation, that is enabled by engineering the metamaterial's building blocks to induce local resonance bandgaps for elastic waves in all…
A lattice of elastic Rayleigh rods organized in a parallelepiped geometry can be axially loaded up to an arbitrary amount without distortion and then be subject to incremental time-harmonic dynamic motion. At certain threshold levels of…
This work studies the constitutive response of two- and three-dimensional lattice materials subject to isotropic prestress. The unit cell of the examined lattices is formed by an arbitrary number of junctions attached to a junction.…
We present an inertia-augmented relaxed micromorphic model that enriches the relaxed micromorphic model previously introduced by the authors via a term $\text{Curl}\dot{P}$ in the kinetic energy density. This enriched model allows us to…
Inspired by natural cellular materials such as trabecular bone, lattice structures have been developed as a new type of lightweight material. In this paper we present a novel method to design lattice structures that conform with both the…
Motivated by the importance of lattice structures in multiple fields, we investigate the propagation of flexural waves in a thin woven plate augmented with two classes of metastructures for wave mitigation and guiding, namely metabarriers…
This work presents a computational method for the design of architected truss lattice materials where each strut can be made of one of a set of available materials. We design the lattices to extremize effective properties. As customary in…
We present a numerical study on an enhanced periodic auxetic metamaterial. Rotating squares mechanism allied to precompression induced buckling give these elastic structures exotic properties. The static properties of the reference…
We reveal the unique and fundamental advantage of inerter-based elastic metamaterials by a comparative study among different configurations. When the embedded inerter is connected to the matrix material on both ends, the metamaterial shows…
In this letter, we experimentally investigate the directional characteristics of propagating, finite-amplitude wave packets in lattice materials, with an emphasis on the functionality enhancement due to the nonlinearly-generated higher…
An optimization method for the design of multi-lattice structures satisfying local buckling constraints is proposed in this paper. First, the concept of free material optimization is introduced to find an optimal elastic tensor distribution…
We propose a local reinforcement technique for lattices in the vicinity of a stress-raiser such as a notch, in order to elevate the macroscopic strength and ductility. A spatially non-uniform waviness distribution of sinusoidally-shaped…
This paper introduces the chain lattice, a hierarchical truss structure comprising two interpenetrating lattices. One lattice toughens the material and prevents catastrophic localized failure while the other lattice serves as a porous…
In this paper, lightweight metastructures are designed consisting of prismatic tensegrity building blocks which have excellent strength-to-weight ratio and also enable unique compression-torsion coupling. A theoretical model with coupled…
This article present the double-periodical lattice made of infinite elastic fibers that withstand bending and tension. The model describes the elastic properties of flat periodic structure. With this model the behavior of a two-dimensional…
On-demand vibration mitigation in a mechanical system needs the suitable design of multiscale metastructures, involving complex unit cells. In this study, immersing in the world of patterns and examining the structural details of some…
Incremental stiffness characterizes the variation of a material's force response to a small deformation change. Typically materials have an incremental stiffness that is fixed and positive, but recent technologies, such as super-lenses, low…
