Optimal design of non-periodic metastructures (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Meng, H., & Chronopoulos, D. (2021, May). Optimal design of non-periodic metastructures. Paper presented at ICAMME 2021: 15. International Conference on Aerospace, Mechatronics and Mechanical Engineering, London, UK

Nonperiodic metamaterials can have better vibration attenuation than periodic metamaterials with properly designed resonator distributions. In this study, we propose optimal design routes for rainbow metamaterials. The rainbow metamaterials are nonpe... Read More about Optimal design of non-periodic metastructures.
