Damping vibration reduction techniques, such as using rubber products, are widely
used for reducing engineering structure vibrations, but they are mainly suitable for
high-frequency damping fields. However, the vibration induced by subways and
earthquakes is low frequency vibration. Low frequency vibration reduction is among
the major challenges for engineering applications. In this respect, searching for
suitable materials for this aim is a very important task. This paper aims to develop a
new phononic-like crystal structure material for decreasing subway-induced
vibration. The proposed new material has the periodic structure of multicrystal
cell aggregates and has the basic characteristics of opening low frequency
band gaps. Based on the new phononic-like crystal periodic structure, a
high-polymer concrete is constructed. The theoretical and experimental results
demonstrate the slab bed track of metro railways with a phononic-like crystal
structure possesses the low frequency and wide band gaps and can thus be
used in underground railroad transport engineering to reduce vibration wave
propagation.
