Acoustic Absorption Analysis and Modeling of Asphalt Mixtures
Journal of Testing and Evaluation, 2019 Abstract Highway traffic noise is a major environmental issue all over the world. This is particularly annoying to residents who live nearby major transportation corridors. Noise pollution adversely affects the quality of their life. It also causes sleep disturbance and anxiety. The most commonly used noise abatement technique is the use

Acoustic Absorption of Vertical Gardens
Revista Elektrón, 2019 Los jardines verticales forman parte de una de las tendencias tecnológicas constructivas más modernas, conocidas como “Greenery Systems”. Estas son aplicadas cada vez con más frecuencia en aquellas construcciones donde se priorizan consideraciones energéticas y ecológicas conciliables con el medio ambiente. Algunas de las características relevantes que

Acoustic blackbody through instability-induced softening
Communications PhysicsPerfect wave absorption across all wavelengths is forbidden by the causality principle. Here we demonstrate an approach that circumvents this fundamental limitation in acoustics by coupling unstable components to achieve zero static modulus.
