AbstractSpace limitations in duct applications, new industrial and health safety regulations require new absorber configurations. Micro-perforated panels (MPP) as used in micro-perforated absorbers (MPA) allow new sound absorber concepts in the category of metamaterials. In this contribution we investigate MPA designs for the low and mid-to-high frequency range and apply finite element (FE) simulations to precisely design absorber configurations for applications in room acoustics and axial fans. The investigations show that the MPA’s cavity configuration must be customized for the desired frequency range and has significant influence on fan performance when applied in a duct flow setup.

Modeling and simulation of the acoustic response in enclosed cavities of a diesel engine are of great significance for optimal design of an engine to achieve a better acoustic performance. Nevertheless, the use of the traditional finite element method (FEM) for the mid to high frequency acoustic prediction is limited by the well-known numerical dispersion errors and the tedious preprocessing of the model. Smoothed finite element methods (SFEMs) proposed originally for solid mechanics have been employed for the modeling of acoustic problems in the low to medium frequency ranges whilst acoustic modeling in the mid to high frequency range remains untouched. This paper comprehensively investigates into the performance of SFEMs in modeling and simulation of mid to high frequency acoustic problems. It is shown that the mass-redistributed edge-based smoothed finite element method (MR-ES-FEM) can yield an excellent prediction result in the mid to high frequency range in terms of accuracy, efficiency and robustness. The MR-ES-FEM is also used to simulate sound propagation in a cylinder head chamber of a four-cylinder diesel engine to prove its effectiveness. The findings presented in this paper offer an in-depth insight for engineers to select suitable numerical methods for solving mid to high frequency acoustic problems in the design of diesel engines.

The phase structure, and electrical and magnetic properties of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3(LSMO)-xAg (xis the mole ratio,x=0, 0.3, 0.5) composite were investigated. It is found that the sample withx=0 is single phase; the samples withx=0.3 and 0.5 present three phase composite structure of the manganese oxide and Ag. With the increasing of Ag content, the grain size of the samples increases and the grain boundaries transition from fully faceted to partially faceted. The permittivity of spectrum (10 MHz - 1 GHz) and the theoretical simulation reveal that the plasma frequencyfpincrease with Ag content, due to the increasing of free electron concentration, which is further supported by the enhancement of conductivity. While for the permeability (μr'), theμr'decrease with the increasing of Ag content at low frequency range (f< 20 MHz), while at the relative high frequency range (f> 300 MHz), theμr'increased with Ag content. Therefore, the introduction of elemental Ag resulted in a higherμr'at the relative high frequency range.

An impedance-based approach for analyzing an axial rod with shear-type damping layer treatment is proposed. The rod and shear-type damping layer are regarded as two subsystems and both impedances are calculated analytically. The system impedance can be obtained through the impedance coupling between the host rod and the damping layer. The shear-type damping layer is regarded as a shear spring with complex shear modulus. Under the traditional model, the damping coefficient diminishes with the increasing frequency. The paper develops two shear-type damping layer models, including the single degree-of-freedom (SDOF) model and continuous model to predict the behavior of the damping layer. Both damping layer models are compared with the traditional model and the system responses from these models are validated by finite element method (FEM) code COMSOL Multiphysics. Results show that the damping coefficients of both the traditional shear-spring model and SDOF model diminish as the increasing frequency so that the system responses are discrepant with that from COMSOL in the high frequency range. On the other hand, the system response from the continuous model is consistent with that from COMSOL in the full frequency range. Hence, the continuous damping layer model can predict a correct damping coefficient in the high frequency range and this property can be also employed to improve the analysis of the constrained-layer damping treated structures. Finally, the modal loss factor and fundamental frequency of the system with respect to different damping layer thicknesses are presented using the developed approach.
