A general theory of harmonic wave propagation in linear periodic systems with multiple coupling

TL;DR: In this paper, a general theory of harmonic wave propagation in one-dimensional periodic systems with multiple coupling between adjacent periodic elements is presented, where the motion of each element is expressed in terms of a finite number of displacement coordinates.

Flexural wave propagation in beams with periodically attached vibration absorbers: Band-gap behavior and band formation mechanisms

TL;DR: In this paper, an exact analytical approach based on a combination of the spectral element method and periodic structure theory is proposed for the prediction of all the band edge frequencies in an exact manner without the need to calculate propagation constants.
