Abstract

We proposed a gradient phononic crystal-Helmholtz cavity structure for simultaneous noise and vibration reduction. By simplifying the structure into a typical Helmholtz cavity and a phononic crystal, we derived the resonance frequency of this structure. Next, we use COMSOL software to calculate the transmission loss and transmissibility. Results of our analysis confirmed that the structure can successfully simultaneous reduce noise and vibration within 2500 Hz, and the range of the reduction frequency is close to 500 Hz. We also show different structures to realize the adjustability of the band gap and improve the practical of noise and vibration reduction.

Graphical abstract

This is the simulation diagram of phononic crystal-Helmholtz cavities. From the perspective of multiple physical fields, vibration reduction belongs to solid mechanics fields, while noise reduction belongs to pressure acoustics fields. In our paper, we both studied these two fields, the results show that this structure can simultaneous reduce noise and vibration within 2500 Hz, and the range of the reduction frequency is close to 500 Hz. In addition, the relationship between reduction frequency and the change of gradient is further studied. Results show that the frequency of the bandgap decreases with the number of unit cell increased. The center frequency of the bandgap decreases from 2000 to 1400 Hz, and it becomes stable at about 1400 Hz eventually.
