Enhanced acoustic insulation properties of composite metamaterials having embedded negative stiffness inclusions

Despite the fact that the concept of incorporating Negative Stiffness (NS) elements within mechanical systems was formulated and validated more than 40 years ago, it has only recently received consistent attention. In this work, the design of a layered mechanical metamaterial having implemented NS i...
