- Abstract
The bandgap properties of elastic metamaterials can be efficiently utilized to tailor the propagation characteristics of elastic and acoustic waves, which have promising applications in noise and vibration reduction and isolation. In this paper, an elastic metamaterial with a multilayered honeycomb structure (EMHS) is proposed to enlarge the bandgaps in the low-frequency range and its bandgap properties are analyzed. To meet the requirement of the lightweight design, an optimization model for maximizing the total relative bandgap width with a mass constraint is established. A novel optimization approach combining the Kriging surrogate model with the genetic algorithm (GA) is proposed to reduce the huge computational cost of the corresponding optimization problem. In the Kriging-GA approach, a high-precision Kriging-based surrogate model with addition of supplementary points is constructed to predict the bandgap objective function value, and the GA is employed to search for the optimal parameters. The performance of the proposed Kriging-GA approach is investigated by numerical examples, and the results are compared with those obtained by the commonly used FEM-GA method. The results show that the proposed Kriging-GA approach is highly efficient for the design optimization of the EMHS and can remarkably reduce the computational cost of the considered optimization problem, which has promising prospects in a wide range of engineering applications.
