Ultrathin acoustic metamaterial as super absorber for broadband low-frequency underwater sound

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
In this work, an ultrathin acoustic metamaterial formed by space-coiled water channels with a rubber coating is proposed for underwater sound absorption. The proposed metamaterial achieves perfect sound absorption ( $$\alpha$$ α  > 0.99) at 181 Hz, which

Mechanical strength of highly porous ceramics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review B, 1991
This paper reports on the mechanical strength of highly porous ceramics in terms of the Weibull and Duxbury-Leath distributions. More than 1000 side-crushing strength tests on silica-catalyst carriers of various particle sizes have been performed in series. Within a series, preparation conditions were kept constant.

Experimental investigation on electromechanical deformation of dielectric elastomers under different temperatures

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2015
Under an applied voltage, dielectric elastomers (DEs) produce an actuation strain that is nonlinear, partly because of the material properties. In this study, an experimental characterization is conducted to evaluate how the ambient temperature and pre ...
