“…In the search for novel lightweight solutions with favourable noise and vibration attenuation performance, locally resonant metamaterials (LRMs) have gained significant attention (Liu et al, 2000;Claeys et al, 2016). Due to their stop band behaviour, arising from the addition of resonant structures on a sub-wavelength scale on or in a flexible host structure, targeted frequency ranges of strong noise and vibration attenuation can be achieved (Xiao et al, 2012(Xiao et al, , 2013Claeys et al, 2016;Chang et al, 2018;Droz et al, 2019;Van Belle et al, 2019;de Melo Filho et al, 2020;Song et al, 2020;Pires et al, 2022;Sangiuliano et al, 2022).…”
