Additionally, the current efforts in earthquake resistance involve a focus on the base of a structure. For example, high-rise buildings, often cause sedimentary displacement and are assumed to settle under their weight once the Earth below can provide balanced resistance. In the past, this approach has been modified to allow the base itself to gain frequency attenuation, effectively allowing the base of the structure itself to fluctuate while the rest of the structure can remain seemingly unharmed. However, as can be imagined, this process requires careful attention and is often only applied to expensive buildings such as skyscrapers in urban environments, leaving the rural setting unprotected. Using a similar methodology, ISMER applies such frequency attenuation into the building materials, allowing dampening of the seismic propagation. The frequency of such seismic events and large-scale protection of major earthquakes has been shown to hover around 2-8 Hz. With the higher frequency waves correlating to lower-magnitude earthquakes and the lower frequencies correlating to high-magnitude earthquakes (>6). The application of metamaterials in earthquake engineering has the potential to revolutionize the field of seismic protection and provide a more effective and economical solution to mitigate the effects of seismic waves. ISMER seeks to provide a cost-effective solution compared to the magnitude of protection relative to the Richter scale to our battle against earthquake collapses and prospects for the use of metamaterials in earthquake engineering, making it a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and policymakers working in this field. It should be noted that within this study, ISMER is a term for the 16unit case of the programmable auxetic/non-auxetic structure which can be varied with the distance variable.
