1. Periodic Structures: A Passive
Vibration Filter

2. What is a Periodic Structure?
• A structure that consists fundamentally of
a number of identical substructure
components that are joined together to
form a continuous structure
Mohammad Tawfik

3. Examples of periodic structures
•
•
•
•
•
Satellite panels
Railway tracks
Aircraft Fuselage
Multistory buildings
Etc…

9. Stop Bands
• As the wave faces an abrupt change in the geometry a
geometry,
part if it is reflected
• The reflected part, interferes with the incident wave
• At some frequency bands that interference becomes
bands,
destructive creating the “Stop Bands”
Mohammad Tawfik

10. Stop bands are the center of
interest for the periodic
p
analysis of structures!

11. Periodic Analysis of Structures

12. Why Periodic Analysis?
• Periodic structures can be modeled like
any ordinary structure, BUT
• In a periodic structure, the study of the
structure
behavior of one cell is enough to
determine the stop and pass bands of the
complete structure independent of the
number of cells
