The bending vibration band structure of phononic crystal (PC) beam is solved by a unified formulation of the modified transfer matrix (MTM) method in this paper. The improvement of MTM method is the introduction of constitutive matrix U and matrix of derivative functions V, which standardizes and simplifies the deduction by the matrix operation. The band structure of an epoxy-aluminum PC Timoshenko beam is calculated by both MTM method and plane wave expansion (PWE) method. The results show that the present MTM method has a great advantage in the precision of the result. In addition, the formulation of transfer matrix derived from Timoshenko beam condition is a general form which is also suitable for other general beam structures just by replacing corresponding matrices.

To achieve the target band-gap in finite locally resonant phononic crystal beams, a method for determining the minimum period number is proposed. The vibration transmissibility method is extended to deal with the finite locally resonant phononic crystal beam. Comparing the vibration attenuation region obtained from the transmissibility method with the band-gap from the conventional transfer matrix method, the minimum period number can be calculated. Based on two forming patterns of locally resonant phononic crystal beams, the effects of the lattice constant and structural parameters of resonators on the band-gap as well as the influence of the period number on the vibration transmission characteristic are investigated. The minimum period number method can improve the applicability of the transmissibility method in the design of band-gaps and overcome the drawback that the transfer matrix method lacks the actual vibration attenuation. Finally, a comprehensive index is introduced to evaluate the effect of vibration reduction.

Using the transfer-matrix method, we evaluate the exact normalized wave function analytically, the band structure, and the current density associated with an electron in a superlattice, with different or equal effective masses between wells and barriers. Also, we evaluate numerically the dispersion relation, the bandwidth, and the current density (in the tight-binding limit) for both equal and different effective masses between wells and barriers.
