摘要

Phononic crystals (PCs) are functional materials with periodic structures and elastic wave (vibration) band gaps, where propagation of vibrations with frequencies within band gaps is forbidden. PCs with finite periods can restrain the propagation of vibrations with frequencies in band gaps and thus has vibration attenuation property. Worldwide, many institutions and researchers are engaged in the research of PCs, however, studies on the vibration attenuation property of PCs are still limited. In this paper, we report our study of band gaps and vibration attenuation properties of 1) a simplified PC-periodic mass-spring structures, 2) longitudinal vibration of one-dimensional (1D-), 2D-, 3D-PCs, and 3) the flexural vibration of 1D- and 2D-PCs. These studies provide a foundation for the applications of PCs in vibration attenuation.
