A continuous steady-state metamaterial with tunable mechanics was designed based on planetary gears. The excellent tunable mechanics properties of metamaterials were studied, which showed the designed metamaterials had a wide range of programmable stiffness and a significantly tunning band gap. The configuration relationship between tunability and structural parameters was analyzed. Then, a rigid-flexible coupling nonlinear dynamics model of planetary gear metamaterials was established and the dynamics characteristics of planetary gear metamaterials were explored by numerical simulation in the processes of dynamic tunning. Moreover, the influences of the system dynamic parameters on the bifurcation characteristics and stability were explored under coupling excitations, and the distribution characteristics of the system vibration response with the coupling parameter plane were disclosed. Finally, an improved non-iterative cell mapping method was used to analyze the dependence of the vibration response of the system on the initial conditions. The results show that the planetary gear metamaterials have a wide range of stiffness tunability and significantly variable band gap interval. Under the influences of internal and external excitations, the system exhibits various dynamics characteristics. The dynamics characteristics of flexible construction are mainly affected by structural parameters, and the dynamics characteristics of rigid construction are affected by multiple sets of coupling parameters and initial conditions.
