Acoustic Impedance and Sound Absorption
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1940Theoretical curves for acoustic impedance vs. frequency, obtained by solving the equation for wave motion within the material, are compared with recently measured values of the impedance of various sound absorbing materials. The satisfactory agreement in most cases measured indicates that that for homogeneous materials the effective values of flow ...

Optimization of the acoustical absorption characteristics of an enclosure
Applied Acoustics, 1999Abstract A method for optimizing the acoustic absorption of a hall characterized by a wide variety of possible constraints is presented. The method is formulated so that it is possible to obtain a total optimum solution directly and efficiently. The method described in the paper is clearly more effective and accurate than the usual ones which are ...

Acoustic Absorption in Sand and Soil
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1948The acoustic absorption properties of sand and soil with varying amounts of water, ranging from dry to saturated, have been investigated. In most of the work the frequency range was 10–30 kc, although data were obtained at as high as 150 kc. Two methods were used.

Acoustic absorptivity of direct acoustic rate feedback control
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1995The fixed-gain feedback methods often provide the only means of limiting transient noise and excessive sound pressures due to unmeasurable, incoherent disturbances. The use of direct acoustic rate feedback (DARFB) to control an enclosure’s reverberant energy has the benefit over other feedback methods of larger stability margins and improved stability ...

Foam acoustic absorption member
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1988A foam acoustic absorption member having a stabilizing layer with perforations and, in order to obtain a simple, stable structural shape of homogeneous resistance to flow, the stabilizing layer (2) is a wide-side wall of a hollow body (K) which wall is pressed, under thermal deformation, against the foam layer (1), the openings in said hollow body ...

Acoustic absorption properties of materials
Construction and Building Materials, 1988Abstract The sound absorption characteristics of some 30 different but easily available sound absorbing materials have been studied previously. Presented here in brief are a selection of these materials, their description, methodology used and results obtained.

Inhomogeneous absorption and geometric acoustics
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1998The conventional formulation of geometric acoustics in the presence of inhomogeneous (spatially varying) absorption is examined. This formulation is found to fail under conditions of multipath propagation, because interference between ray paths is not taken into account when the absorptive losses are calculated.

Acoustical absorption by materials in a nacelle of turbojet
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2013The paper discusses the absorption of certain materials with different acoustic properties used in a nacelle of aircraft is investigated using numerical model. A model 2-D with the configuration of axisymmetrical and the differential equations of the Continuity and Helmholtz equation is realized, it couples a finite element description with a boundary ...

Sound Absorption Coefficients and Acoustic Impedance
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1941The relation between normal acoustic impedance and the various types of absorption coefficient has been discussed and specific formulas for the coefficients in terms of acoustic impedance have been published. Contours of constant absorption coefficient plotted as a function of the real and imaginary parts of acoustic impedance plotted on a linear scale

Experiments on Acoustic Absorption in Sand and Soil
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1950The acoustic absorption of sand and soil with varying amounts of water (dry to saturated) has been investigated the 10- to 100-kc range. Two methods were used. In one, the source and a number of equally spaced probe microphones were imbedded in the medium.
