Hybrid mechanical metamaterials: Advances of multi-functional mechanical metamaterials with simultaneous static and dynamic properties by Ana Carolina Azevedo Vasconcelos, Dingena Schott, Jovana Jovanova

“…Although such metamaterials introduced significant contribution for solving independently static and dynamic problems, they were facing certain resistance to their use in real-world engineering problems, mainly because of a lack of integrated systems possessing both mechanical and vibration attenuation performance. Advances in manufacturing processes and material and computational science now enable the creation of hybrid mechanical metamaterials, offering multifunctionality in terms of simultaneous static and dynamic properties, giving them the ability of controlling waves while withstanding the applied loading conditions. …”
