Acoustical properties of double porosity granular materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Granular materials have been conventionally used for acoustic treatment due to their sound absorptive and sound insulating properties. An emerging field is the study of the acoustical properties of multiscale porous materials.

Design of periodic foam structures for acoustic applications: Concept, parametric study and experimental validation

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2019
Reticulated foams are widely used in noise control applications. However, difficulties in controlling the foaming process makes it difficult to control the microstructure and consequently the absorption characteristics of stochastic foams.

Performance of T-shape barriers with top surface covered with absorptive quadratic residue diffusers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A previous paper [Applied Acoustics 66 (2005) 709–730] has shown that adding a quadratic residue diffuser (QRD) to the top of a T-shape barrier can provide better barrier performance than an equivalent purely absorptive barrier.

Acoustic Absorption of Natural Fiber Composites [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2016
The current study is a bibliographic observation on prevailing tendencies in the development of acoustic absorption by natural fiber composites. Despite having less detrimental environmental effects and thorough availability, natural fibers are still unsuitable for wide implementation in industrial purposes.

Subjective Effects of Sound Absorption and Investigation of Reverberation Times in Modern Japanese Dwellings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
This study aimed to reveal the influence of sound absorption in general dwellings on the subjective evaluation of acoustics. First, a subjective experiment was conducted using a full-scale room model. The results indicate that the feelings of silence and

Broadband low-frequency sound absorption in open tunnels with deep sub-wavelength Mie resonators

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
We report both experimentally and numerically that near-perfect absorption of low-frequency sound is realized in an open tunnel embedded with two deep sub-wavelength (0.085 λ) Mie resonators. The resonators are composed of a multiple-cavity structure and
