What is Seismic Wave Attenuation with Metamaterials about?
Metamaterials may provide a new method for earthquake-resistant building design. The authors propose using a cylindrical shell made of metamaterials to exponentially attenuate seismic waves before they reach protected structures. As seismic waves pass through the shell, it would convert them into evanescent waves in a stop-band frequency range. This would reduce the amplitude and destructive potential of the waves without direct interaction with the building. The method aims to supplement conventional aseis
