The multi-local resonance metamaterial is based on the local resonance mechanism of resonators, effectively blocking wave propagation within multiple resonant frequency ranges, a phenomenon known as band gaps. In practical applications for vibration reduction, the goal is to achieve wide-band vibration attenuation at low frequencies. Therefore, this study aims to improve the vibration reduction performance of multi-local resonance metamaterials by lowering the band gap frequency and expanding the band gap width. To achieve this, an objective function was formulated in the optimization problem, considering both the frequency and width of the band gap, with the geometric shapes of the multiple local resonators selected as design variables. The Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) technique was employed for optimization. The results confirmed that the band gap was generated at lower frequencies and that the band gap width was expanded.

As primary members of cable-stayed bridge, stay cables are the most important elements of the entire structure. Wind-induced or Rain-Wind vibration is a cause of the safety in the bridge, the deep anxiety for the observing public. One of effective ways to solve this problem is to install the damper. To design the damper, it is necess따y to estimate the cable dynamic characteristics. In this study, for the cable dynamic characteristics we deγeloped the cable exciting mechanical system(exciter). And to evaluate the performance of the cable exciter, we derived the solution of frequency equation from the differential equation of the mathematical model, 뻐d performed the solution of frequency equation, the eigenvalue analysis by FEM model, the resonance dwelling test and swept sine test
