Abstract

Described are systems for absorbing flexural waves acting on a structure. In one example, the system includes a first resonator connected to a structure at a first location and a second resonator connected to the structure at a second location. The distance between the first location and the second location is based on a frequency of a flexural wave acting upon the structure and an orientation of the first resonator and the second resonator with respect to each other.
