It is of interest to validate the analytical model with experimental results. In this paper, the band gap (BG) behavior of a locally resonant metamaterial is tested and compared to the analytical and numerical results. First, the unit cell resonance is measured and the material properties extracted. Then, vibration analysis of a metamaterial plate of 0.5 x 0.4 x 0.003 m is carried out. The influence of the variability of the properties of each of the resonators due to the construction method is analysed. Lastly, the result is compared to the analytical model and conclusions drawn.", }
