A new kind of elastic metamaterial plate is designed to control the vibration and elastic wave propagation based on the band-gap mechanism. For the proposed elastic metamaterial plate, local resonant rods are periodically distributed between the two cover plates of the metamaterial plate structure. The dynamic stiffness matrix and the frequency response function of the structure under the time-harmonic excitation are obtained by the finite element and spectral element hybrid method (FE-SEHM). The experiment and simulation validations have been carried out. The effects of the material and structural parameters on the band-gap characteristics are analyzed. It is shown that the band-gaps can be computed more accurately and efficiently based on the FE-SEHM to avoid confusion between the pass-bands and band-gaps. Three band-gaps of the elastic metamaterial plate appear near the odd-order natural frequencies of the local resonant rods. Increasing the damping and mass of the local resonant rods results in the enlargement of the band-gap width, this enhances the capacity of the vibration reduction and sound isolation more effectively.
