We construct new fractal acoustic metamaterials by coiling up space, which can allow subwavelength-scale and broadband sound insulation to be achieved. Using the finite element method and the S-parameter retrieval method, the band structures, the effective parameters, and the transmission losses of these acoustic metamaterials with different fractal orders are researched individually. The results illustrate that it is easy to form low-frequency bandgaps using these materials and thus achieve subwavelength-scale sound control. As the number of fractal orders increase, more bandgaps appear. In particular, in the ΓX direction of the acoustic metamaterial lattice, more of these wide bandgaps appear in different frequency ranges, thus providing broadband sound insulation and showing promise for use in engineering applications.

In this text, the combination of spiral structure and zigzag channels is introduced to design labyrinthine structures, in which sound waves can propagate alternately in the clockwise and counterclockwise directions. Finite element method and S-parameter retrieval method are used to calculate band structures, effective parameters, and transmission properties of the structures. The influences of different structural parameters on their acoustic properties are also studied. These results show labyrinthine structures have multiple bandgaps in the range of 0 Hz–1000 Hz, and the proportion of bandgaps exceeds 33%, which indicates labyrinthine structures have good broadband properties. The normalized frequency of the lowest bandgaps is far smaller than 1, which indicates the structures take good control of sound waves on subwavelength scale. Combining units with different structural parameters can achieve better sound insulation. This research provides a new kind of space-coiling structure for low-frequency and broadband sound waves control, which have excellent application prospects.

Plate Type

Thin plate-type acoustic metamaterials have the advantages of lightweight, high rigidity and adjustable parameters, showing great practical application values in sound wave control. In this paper, a type of perforated bi-layer plate-type acoustic metamaterials (PBPAM) is designed for low-frequency noise control. The sound insulation peaks can be increased by combining the perforated plate and synergetic masses, making the sound insulation performance close to the mass law at the resonant frequency. Compared to the results predicted by the mass law, a better performance of sound insulation is achieved based on the PBPAM. The effects of the structural parameters are investigated in this study. Based on the impedance tube experiments, the measured results have a good agreement with the simulated ones. This work can provide a reference for low-frequency and broadband sound insulation based on plate-type acoustic metamaterials in practical engineering.

Abstract To solve the problem of low-frequency noise control in ship cabins, a new membrane-type acoustic metamaterial (MAM) with bulges on the surface of thin films is designed based on the characteristics of lightweight and low-frequency sound insulation of membrane-type acoustic metamaterials. The sound structure coupling module of COMSOL multiphysical field coupling software is used to analyse the sound insulation performance of MAMs. The sound insulation properties of the additional mass film and self-similar fractal convex structure are further discussed. The metamaterial structure studied in this paper has a better sound insulation effect than ordinary film, which provides strong technical support for ship cabin noise control.
