Control of wave propagation in electromagnetics and acoustics experienced a large development these last years thanks to new complex media like photonic or phononic crystals and metamaterials. This work deals with the transfer of these complex media for the control of flexural waves in thin plates. These studies are the first steps towards the generalization of the control of elastic waves in structured solids. The beginning of the manuscript deals with flexural waves focusing with negative refraction using a square lattice of holes in a thin plate. The following of this work concern the time development of this negative refraction effect and shows that this system can beat the focusing diffraction limit. We introduce the blind hole or non-...
