Effect of prestress on phononic band gaps induced by inertial amplification
M. Miniaci, M. Mazzotti, A. Amendola +1
We report about the effect of an applied external mechanical load on a periodic structure exhibiting band gaps induced by inertial amplification mechanism. If compared to the cases…
Innovative seismic isolation devices based on lattice materials: A review
F. Fraternali, A. Amendola, G. Benzoni
This paper reviews recent literature results on the mechanics of structures formed by layers of pentamode lattices alternating with stiffening plates, which can be effectively empl…
Mechanical modeling of innovative metamaterials alternating pentamode lattices and confinement plates
F. Fraternali, A. Amendola
This study examines the mechanical behavior of a novel class of mechanical metamaterials alternating pentamode lattices and stiffening plates. The unit cell of such lattices consis…
Bending dominated response of layered mechanical metamaterials alternating pentamode lattices and confinement plates
A. Amendola, G. Carpentieri, L. Feo +1
A numerical study on the elastic response of single- and multi-layer systems formed by alternating pentamode lattices and stiffening plates is presented. Finite element simulations…
Incremental auxetic response of composite lattices under isotropic prestress
Ada Amendola, Fernando Fraternali
This work studies the constitutive response of two- and three-dimensional lattice materials subject to isotropic prestress. The unit cell of the examined lattices is formed by an a…
Mathematical modeling of a Cosserat method in finite-strain holonomic plasticity
Thomas Blesgen, Ada Amendola
This article deals with the mathematical derivation and the validation over benchmark examples of a numerical method for the solution of a finite-strain holonomic (rate-independent…
