Abstract

Impact events on soil media cause vibrations that propagate all around the impact site. These vibrations can be mitigated by the construction of suitable buried barriers. A recent proposal suggests of realizing them by meta-structures characterized by a nonlinear response. Their design requires repeated analyses of the whole system made of soil and barriers. A simplification is achieved by building the reduced order model of the linear system and incorporating the nonlinear effects as suitable external actions.
