ENHANCED DAMPING CHARACTERISTICS OF TIMOSHENKO BEAM ON ELASTIC AND METAMATERIAL FOUNDATIONS
An analytical model is developed for the flexural wave propagation of a continuous Timoshenko beam resting on elastic and metamaterial foundations. The metamaterial foundation consists of positive and negative springs with a damper. This added negative stiffness component is constructed in such a way to provide the same static stiffness and the sam...
