Transmission loss of acoustic metamaterials (AM) made of double thin plates with magnetic (negative) stiffness was analyzed using theory, finite element analysis and experimental techniques. The theoretical formulation was done using a rectangular duct below the first cut off frequency, the model is then validated against finite element method and experiment. Two cubic magnets were used, their interaction force and the resulted magnetic stiffness were calculated. The sound transmission loss (STL) of the structure is calculated for plane wave condition, the addition of magnetic mass shifts STL peaks to the lower frequency compared to a structure without mass. The slight increase in STL for small negative stiffness in experiment is not enough to cancel the effect of air compressibility. However, a significant enhancement could be expected if negative stiffness can be made large enough in the double thin plates. The developed AM can be employed as a prospective sound engineering control at low frequency.

Membrane-type acoustic metamaterials are thin films or plates composed of periodic units with small additional mass. A large number of studies have shown that these metamaterials exhibit tunable anti-resonance, and their transmission loss values are much higher than the corresponding quality laws. At present, most researches on membrane-type acoustic metamaterials focus on the unit cell, and the sound insulation frequency band can only be adjusted by adjusting the structural parameters and material parameters. In this paper, two kinds of acoustic metamaterials with different structures are designed, which are the center placement of the mass and the eccentric placement of the mass.The two structures have different sound insulation characteristics. By designing different array combinations of acoustic metamaterials, the sound insulation peaks of different frequency bands are obtained. This paper studies the corresponding combination law, and effectively realizes the adjustable sound insulation frequency band.
