The acoustical absorption by air-saturated aerogel powders

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2022
The acoustical behavior of air-saturated aerogel powders in the audible frequency range is not well understood. It is not clear, for example, which physical processes control the acoustic absorption and/or attenuation in a very light, loose granular mix in which the grain diameter is on the order of a micron.

Measurement of the sound absorption coefficient of materials in a reverberant chamber using an omnidirectional parametric loudspeaker

open access: yesProceedings of the 10th Convention of the European Acoustics Association Forum Acusticum 2023, 2022
The omnidirectional parametric loudspeaker (OPL) is a sound source that exploits the phenomenon of the parametric acoustic array (PAA) to produce an omnidirectional sound field. It consists of hundreds of ultrasound transducers distributed on the surface

Acoustic Absorption Coefficients at High Frequencies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1949
The measurement of the acoustic absorption coefficient by a steady state method was carried out at frequencies of 9, 20, and 30 kc for seven different materials. This involved the construction of a sound chamber with facilities for creating a diffuse sound field and a sample area where materials could be mounted.

A time-harmonic/time-domain hybrid approach based on displacement-based formulations to compute the absorbing coefficient in alpha cabins

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics in Industry
In the automotive industry, the absorption coefficient of a porous material layer is usually measured in an alpha cabin, a reverberant chamber of reduced dimensions where the operational frequency range is limited and the absorbent sample size is ...

Ultra-Thin Metasurface-Based Absorber of Low-Frequency Sound With Bandwidth Optimization

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2021
We report, both theoretically and experimentally, a type of ultra-thin metasurface-based low-frequency sound absorber with bandwidth optimization. Such a metasurface unit consists of an ultrathin resonator (thickness∼1/90 wavelength) with a circular hole

Air Absorption Error in Room Acoustical Modeling [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008
Most statistical and ray-tracing computer models take into account the absorption of sound by air when calculating the reverberation time. Extensive research by many scientist lead to the standardized calculation model for pure tone air absorption.

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.
