The propagation of longitudinal elastic waves in quasi one-dimensional structure consisting of harmonic oscillators periodically jointed on a slender beam is studied. Sub-frequency locally resonant band gap with highly asymmetric attenuation is observed in both theoretical and experimental results, and both results match well. The stiffness and mass ratios are found analytically as two factors that influence the actual attenuation in the band gap of the locally resonant phononic crystals. The study on the weights of the two factors shows that the stiffness ratio is the key one. Thus, the reason for the mismatch between the regions of the sharp attenuation and the theoretical band gap in the locally resonant phononic crystals is discovered.

The band structures of in-plane elastic waves propagating in two-dimensional phononic crystals with one-dimensional aperiodicity are analyzed in this paper. The localization of wave propagation is discussed by introducing the concept of the localization factor that is calculated by the plane-wave-based transfer-matrix method. By treating the aperiodicity as the deviation from the periodicity in a special way, two kinds of aperiodic phononic crystals that have Thue-Morse and Rudin-Shapiro sequence in one direction and translational symmetry in the other direction are considered. The transmission coefficients based on eigenmode match theory are also calculated and the results show the same behaviors as the localization factor does. In the case of Thue-Morse and Rudin-Shapiro structures, the band structures of Thue-Morse sequence exhibit similarities with quasi-periodic sequence not present in the results of Rudin-Shapiro sequence.
