Abstract
There are two methods for earthquake engineering as an application of acoustic metamaterials. One is the traditional cloaking method that makes the seismic wave deflect the building to be protected. The other is the artificial shadow zone method that makes the seismic wave disappear by attenuation. We will explain the fundamental principles of the two methods and compare the advantages and disadvantages of both.
