The propagation of low-frequency elastic waves may exert significant stress on both human health and environmental safety. This study presents a new kind of cementitious metamaterials (CMs) characterized by tunable bandgaps for efficient absorption of low-frequency elastic waves. A dynamic system model is employed to examine and analyze the eigenfrequencies of these CMs. Herein, the porous alkali-activated municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (AAFMs) is modulated with customed density and then combined with rubber for generating CMs. Two distinct strategies are proposed to modulate the bandgap properties of the CMs: density customization and geometric optimization. The AAFMs' density is meticulously regulated by altering the foaming aluminum content, allowing the customization of CMs' bandgaps. Additionally, the CMs' bandgaps can also be tailored through geometric optimization, a process that involves a numerical method focused on examining the impact of varying inclined angles in inner and outer re-entrant structures. A transmission loss model is also developed to validate the bandgap characteristics of these CMs. Overall, the study explores the potential applications of these CMs, with a specific focus on their efficacy in mitigating low-frequency vibrations and attenuating noise. The successful utilization of these materials in such domains holds promising prospects for substantial advancements across diverse industrial sectors.
