Relative performance of different strategies for wave attenuation by periodic structures

For a periodic structure of symmetric scatterers, such as a ribbed plate or cylinder, Bloch-Floquet waves (BFW) are well-known periodic structure waves (PSW). Conventional wisdom is to attenuate BFW propagation by re-flections, energy absorption or stopping bands. Recent theoretical results show tha...
