description Abstract Vibration and noise control are among the classical engineering problems that still draw extensive research interest today. Multiple active and passive control techniques to resolve these problems have been reported, however, the challenges remain substantial. The recent surge of research activities on acoustic metamaterials for vibration and noise control are testimony to the fact that acoustic metamaterial is no longer limited to pure theoretical concepts. For vibration and noise control over an ultrawide frequency region, 3-D metastructures emerge as a novel solution tool to resolve this problem. In that context, the present study reports a novel proposal for 3-D monolithic phononic metastructures with the capability to induce low frequency ultrawide three-dimensional bandgaps with relative bandwidth enhancements of 157.6% and 160.1%. The proposed monolithic metastructure designs consist of elastic frame assembly that is connected with the rigid cylindrical masses.
