The Influence of Different Parameter on the Seismic Behavior of SRUHSC Frame by Yingchao Ma, Jinqing Jia

“…Based on the results, a systematic exploration is further conducted in terms of the characteristics of the skeleton curve, hysteresis curve, strength degradation, stiffness degradation, and energy dissipation capacity of the structure. The results indicate that as the axial compression ratio increases, and the shear span ratio decreases, the failure process of the entire structure and the weakening of the beam end are accelerated. …”

Investigation on the Band Gap and Negative Properties of Concentric Ring Acoustic Metamaterial by Meng Chen, Dan Meng, Heng Jiang, Yuren Wang

“…The acoustic characteristics of 2D single-oscillator, dual-oscillator, and triple-oscillator acoustic metamaterials were investigated based on concentric ring structures using the finite element method. For the single-oscillator, dual-oscillator, and triple-oscillator models investigated here, the dipolar resonances of the scatterer always induce negative effective mass density, preventing waves from propagating in the structure, thus forming the band gap. …”
