Zusammenfassung:The present invention is generally concerned with the use of a sheet lamination method to produce sheet-form materials with controlled cellular architecture, which may be used as vibration damping and/or sound attenuation materials. The materials described herein can exhibit superior vibration damping and/or sound attenuation properties compared to existing materials available in the industry. The method for the present invention involves the successive lamination of a series of films of polymer or composite material in which a plurality of apertures has been created. In such embodiments, the apertures can be of varying sizes in successive films and be positioned in such a manner that a plurality of three-dimensional cells are created in the final sheet-form material.
