Seismic Metamaterials
A seismic metamaterial is typically a lattice structure with individual elements at each node of the lattice. Active research in this field investigates what spacing needs to exist between each element and exactly each element need to be.


 * Individual elements include boreholes, trees, mass-spring systems, etc
 * I would like to add in some explanation of what physically is happening, i.e. waves interacting with each element and with the whole structure itself

Seismic Metamaterials Experiments
In 2012, researchers held an experimental field-test in France, with the aim to highlight analogy with phononic crystal.

Notes :


 * This section should start with an introduction to seismic metamaterials experiments
 * Maybe I should rename this to Seismic Metamaterials Experiments
 * This section should add in the work that had been done at the high frequency end
 * This section should add in the meta foret project and the trees experiment
 * This should also include the composite structures
