Abstract
The vibrational properties of acoustic metamaterial multilayers, which are made of a periodic arrangement of clusters of mass and mass-in-mass microstructure, were numerically studied. The dispersion relations of one-dimensional multilayers and two-dimensional periodic structures with square lattices were clarified. It was confirmed that flat modes appear in a sonic band gap, and that the number of such in-gap modes can be controlled by changing the structure of a multilayer. The physical origin of the flat modes is also discussed.
