Abstract
Sonic black holes represent a special class of metastructures allowing efficient absorption based on the slow sound principle. The decrease in the wave speed in this case is associated with the spatial variation of the acoustic impedance, whereas the absorption properties are linked to thermoviscous losses induced by the local resonances. Typically, sonic black holes are considered as axially symmetric structures consisting of solid rings with a coordinate-dependent radius. This work is dedicated to the development of noise-insulating structures that have a geometry similar to a sonic black hole with a rectangular cross section. Transmission loss in this case is associated with the local coupling between the resonators constituting meta-atoms, which results in the occurrence of broad stop-bands in transmission spectra of the structure. A realistic application scenario of a ventilated duct is considered such that a fan simultaneously generates acoustic noise and air flow. The structure embedded in the duct is shown to demonstrate efficient noise insulation within the spectral range of 1000 – 2850 Hz, while the air flow speed is reduced by just 25%.
期刊介绍:
Since its launch in 1968, Applied Acoustics has been publishing high quality research papers providing state-of-the-art coverage of research findings for engineers and scientists involved in applications of acoustics in the widest sense.
Applied Acoustics looks not only at recent developments in the understanding of acoustics but also at ways of exploiting that understanding. The Journal aims to encourage the exchange of practical experience through publication and in so doing creates a fund of technological information that can be used for solving related problems. The presentation of information in graphical or tabular form is especially encouraged. If a report of a mathematical development is a necessary part of a paper it is important to ensure that it is there only as an integral part of a practical solution to a problem and is supported by data. Applied Acoustics encourages the exchange of practical experience in the following ways: • Complete Papers • Short Technical Notes • Review Articles; and thereby provides a wealth of technological information that can be used to solve related problems.
Manuscripts that address all fields of applications of acoustics ranging from medicine and NDT to the environment and buildings are welcome.
