Abstract
The 2019-nCoV is ravaging the world, taking lots of lives, and it is emergent to find a solution to deal with this novel pneumonia. This paper provides a potential treatment for COVID-19 utilizing resonance to destroy the infection ability of 2019-nCoV. Firstly, the geometry size of 2019-nCoV is scaled up by 10,000 times. The additional mass is used to represent the effect of the fluid around a spike protein. The finite element analysis (FEA) is used to study the modal characteristics of the tuned 2019-nCoV model and mistuned 2019-nCoV model in blood, respectively. Based on FEA, the lumped parameter mechanical model of 2019-nCoV is established. Then, the dynamic responses of mistuned 2019-nCoV are investigated through harmonic response and dynamical analysis. Finally, a potential method utilizing 360° sweep excitation to cure COVID-19 is put forward. © Springer Nature B.V. 2020.
