Abstract:

Broadband vibration attenuation is a challenging task in engineering since it is difficult to achieve low-frequency and broadband vibration control simultaneously. To solve this problem, this paper designs a piezoelectric meta-beam with unidirectional electric circuits, exhibiting promising broadband attenuation capabilities. An analytical model in a closed form for achieving the solution of unidirectional vibration transmission of the designed meta-beam is developed based on the state-space transfer function method. The method can analyze the forward and backward vibration transmission of the piezoelectric meta-beam in a unified manner, providing reliable dynamics solutions of the beam. The analytical results indicate that the meta-beam effectively reduces the unidirectional vibration across a broad low-frequency range, which is also verified by the solutions obtained from finite element analyses. The designed meta-beam and the proposed analytical method facilitate a comprehensive investigation into the distinctive unidirectional transmission behavior and superb broadband vibration attenuation performance.

Key words: broadband vibration attenuation, efficient closed-form analytical solution, electromechanical coupling, piezoelectric material, vibration control
