β¦ Synopsis
The energy fraction ?TE is developed as a measure of energy con"nement in periodic systems of "nite extent. Based on the response of a system to uniform broadband forcing, ?TE is experimentally measurable but can be expensive to calculate. It is shown that a norm of the eigenvector matrix ?TE is a good approximation for ?TE when damping is light. ?TE is almost three orders of magnitude faster to calculate than ?TE , which makes detailed Monte Carlo studies of imperfections practical. One-dimensional linear-chain and cyclic systems of a range of sizes are studied. In line with previous research, it is found that a periodic system's propensity to con"ne energy increases with system size. It is also found that cyclic systems are less likely to su!er energy con"nement than (otherwise equivalent) linear-chain systems.

The study of wave propagation in structures and discrete or continuous media has a significant history which follows from the examination of the dynamics of atomic and molecular lattices. Relatively recently, some of these ideas have been transferred and applied to the dynamic behavior of engineered
