A Power-Based Framework for Quantifying Parameter Uncertainties in Finite Vibroacoustic Metamaterial Plates.

Vibroacoustic metamaterials (VAMMs) are artificial materials that are specifically designed to control, direct, and manipulate sound waves by creating a frequency gap, known as the stop band, which blocks free wave propagation. In this paper, a new power-based approach that relies on the active structural intensity (STI) for predicting the stop band behavior of finite VAMM structures is presented. The proposed method quantifies the power loss in a locally resonant finite VAMM plate in terms of percentage, such as and , for stop band prediction.
