【 摘 要 】

Elastic metamaterials are of growing interest due to their unique effective properties and wave manipulation abilities. Unlike phononic crystals based on the Bragg scattering mechanism, elastic metamaterials (EMMs) are based on the locally resonant (LR) mechanism and can fully control elastic waves at a subwavelength scale. Microstructural designs of EMMs in plate-like structures have attracted a great deal of attention. In this paper, the recent advances in the microstructural designs of LR-based EMM plates are reviewed. Their potential applications in the fields of low frequency guided wave attenuation, wave manipulation and energy trapping at a subwavelength scale, and structural health monitoring are discussed.
