“…In the field of acoustics, numerous works have shown the existence of solitary waves in uniform or inhomogeneous rods [12,31,3], periodic chains of elastics beads [33,2,11,13,44], periodic structures such as lattices or crystals [9,23,26], elastic layers [32,41,42], layered structures coated by film of soft material [30] and microstructured solids [18]. As we can see, most studies concern elastic waves in solids.…”
