In 5D f(T, T_G) gravity, thick branes develop splitting and internal structure controlled by the coupling, while supporting a normalizable chiral fermion zero mode and modified resonant Kaluza-Klein states due to the torsional Gauss-Bonnet term.

abstract
In this work, we investigate the gravitational resonances in various $f(T)$-brane models with the warp factor $\text{e}^{A(y)}=\tanh\big(k(y+b)\big)-\tanh\big(k(y-b)\big)$. For three kinds of $f(T)$, we give the solutions to the system. Besides, we consider the tensor perturbation of vielbein and obtain the effective potentials by the Kaluza-Klein (KK) decomposition. Then, we analyze what kind of effective potential can produce the gravitational resonances. Effects of different parameters on the gravitational resonances are analysed. The lifetimes of the resonances could be long enough as the age of our universe in some ranges of the parameters. This indicates that the gravitational resonances might be considered as one of the candidates of dark matter. Combining the current experimental observations, we constrain the parameters for these brane models.

The graviscalar quasinormal mode spectrum and late-time power-law tails of a Rastall thick brane are computed numerically, showing that the Rastall parameter λ controls mode lifetimes and tail exponents.
In a thick braneworld model with f(T) = T + α T², the parameter α induces brane splitting and alters the decay rates of quasinormal modes, with two numerical methods agreeing on the low-overtone spectrum.
In ghost-free two-scalar f(R) thick branes, internal structure produces no narrow real-axis tensor resonances; quasinormal modes are broad with quality factors 0.9-1.9.
