Automotive low frequency noise is difficult to control in a traditional way. Locally resonant phononic crystals (PCs) can forbid the propagation of certain frequency. This PCs’ structure also can be fabricated to apply in automotive noise control. The simulation method is applied to establish the model of two-dimensional (2D) locally resonant phononic crystals in order to research the impact of the parameters on the propagation. The band gap of locally resonant phononic crystals in z mode is calculated using the simplified model.

Because of the position of the motor and the excitation of the suspension system, a wheel-driven electric bus produces low-frequency noise, which is difficult to resolve through traditional sound absorption and noise reduction technology. Through an interior noise test of a wheel-driven electric bus, we found that the interior low-frequency noise had a considerable influence on the driver. In order to solve this problem, a locally resonant phononic crystal was used to meet the requirements of vibration and noise reduction for the wheel-driven electric bus. The intrinsic relationship between the band gap distribution of the locally resonant phononic crystal and the topology was established by training a neural network, so as to achieve the desired effect of the bandgap model on the basis of the input bandgap range. Upon an increase in the number of models, the prediction model error decreased gradually. This method could quickly obtain the structural parameters of the locally resonant phononic crystal with the expected band gap, which made it convenient to apply locally resonant phononic crystals to the vibration and noise reduction of wheel-driven electric buses and in other fields.

Localized resonance phononic crystals (LRPCs) are increasingly attracting scientists’ attention in the field of low-frequency noise reduction because of the excellent subwavelength band gap characteristics in the low-frequency band. However, the LRPCs have always had the disadvantage that the noise reduction band is too narrow. In this paper, in order to solve this problem, LRPCs based on double-layer plates with cavity structures are designed. First, the energy bands of phononic crystals plate with different thicknesses were calculated by the finite element method (FEM). At the same time, the mechanism of band gap generation was analyzed in combination with the modalities. Additionally, the influence of structure on the sound transmission loss (STL) of the phononic crystals plate and the phononic crystals cavity plates were analyzed, which indicates that the phononic crystals cavity plates have notable characteristics and advantages. Moreover, this study reveals a unique ”cavity cave” pattern in the STL diagram for the phononic crystals cavity plates, and it was analyzed. Finally, the influence of structural factors on the band structure and STL of phononic crystals cavity plates are summarized, and the theoretical basis and method guidance for the study of phononic crystals cavity plates are provided. New ideas are also provided for the future design and research of phononic crystals plate along with potential applications in low-frequency noise reduction.

Through the use of a spectral analysis of the source of noise – person’s movement over the ceiling construction – it was found out that in this kind of noise distinctive low-frequency tone components occur (31,5 - 40 Hz) which is beyond the evaluation area of the impact sound insulation of the ceiling construction, s. [2], [3].

The acoustic absorption of granular aerogel layers with a granule sizes in the range of 2 to 40 μm is dominated by narrow-banded, high absorption regions in the low-frequency range and by reduced absorption values at higher frequencies. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of developing new, low-frequency noise reduction materials by layering granular aerogels with traditional porous sound absorbing materials such as glass fibers. The acoustic behavior of the layered configurations is predicted using the arbitrary coefficient method, wherein the granular aerogel layers are modeled as an equivalent poro-elastic material while the fibrous media and membrane are modeled as limp media. The analytical predictions are verified using experimental measurements conducted using the normal incidence, two-microphone impedance tube method. Our results show that layered configurations including granular aerogels, fibrous materials, and limp membranes provide enhanced sound absorption properties that can be tuned for specific noise control applications over a broad frequency range.
