Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an acoustic metamaterial with adjustable acoustic performance, and particularly to a mode-switchable thin-film acoustic metamaterial structure based on a magneto-control mechanism, belonging to the technical field of noise control. Background Art

[0002] Due to the weak inherent dissipation of natural materials in the low-frequency band, there has always been a huge challenge in the control of low-frequency sound waves. Although traditional porous sound-absorbing materials and impedance matching designs can achieve good sound-absorbing effects in the medium and high-frequency bands, there are still inadaptabilities in realizing small-size control of large wavelengths.

[0003] With the in-depth study of the acoustic performance of composite materials and structures, it has been found that they have properties different from natural acoustic materials, and such structures are collectively referred to as acoustic artificial structures. Among them, "acoustic metamaterials" refer to structures designed by combining materials in a specific way to obtain some acoustic properties that natural materials do not possess. Its important feature is that the working wavelength is much larger than the geometric size of its unit cell, and it can be characterized by equivalent parameters. The elastic constants and densities of natural materials are all positive values. Acoustic metamaterials enrich the optional range of material parameters, such as negative equivalent material parameters and zero-coefficient equivalent material parameters, etc. Therefore, through the design of acoustic metamaterial structures, the control ability of sound waves can be improved, and it has good application prospects.

[0004] Using the local resonance mechanism, thin-film metamaterials can achieve strange phenomena such as negative mass, negative modulus, double-negative parameters, and "perfect sound absorption" in the low-frequency band. However, affected by its action mechanism, passive metamaterials have a narrow working frequency band and cannot adapt to changes in the environment and requirements, and have a single function. Therefore, researchers have proposed to design adjustable acoustic metamaterials by using intelligent materials and controlling the change of the structure state. For example, it has been reported that a thin-film acoustic metamaterial based on piezoelectric materials can achieve continuous regulation of equivalent parameters within a certain range; it has been reported that an elastic metamaterial that realizes the switching of passbands and stopbands by using structure buckling to induce changes in the geometric shape of the structure. However, the acoustic metamaterials using the electro-control method utilize the force-electric coupling effect of intelligent materials, require a high input voltage, have a limited regulation range, and belong to contact control. The existing regulation mechanism based on circuit feedback requires a relatively complex system, requires the application of a strong electromagnetic field, and most of them are continuous control of acoustic performance.

[0005] Therefore, providing a mode-switchable thin-film acoustic metamaterial structure based on a magneto-control mechanism, using a magnetic field to achieve non-contact regulation, inducing changes in the internal force of the structure, breaking the symmetry of the internal force of the structure, exciting implicit asymmetric modes, and realizing sudden changes in acoustic properties, to solve the problem that the thin-film metamaterials based on the electromagnetic intelligent material parameter regulation mechanism require the application of a strong electromagnetic field, and the control method is simple and convenient for design, has become an urgent technical problem to be solved in this technical field.

[0063] Embodiment 1

[0064] As Figure 1 shown, it is a flowchart of the preparation method of the mode-switchable thin-film acoustic metamaterial based on the magneto-control mechanism in Embodiment 1 of the present invention;

[0065] The preparation method of the mode-switchable thin-film acoustic metamaterial based on the magneto-control mechanism of the present invention is as follows:

[0066] S1. Construct a thin-film metamaterial acoustic-vibration coupling model;

[0067] S2. Calculate the influence of different magnetic forces on the internal force of the thin-film structure, obtain the modal frequencies and vibration modes of the thin-film metamaterial under different magnetic forces, and establish the magneto-control force relationship of the thin-film metamaterial;

[0068] S3. According to the design objective, based on the relationship between the design parameters such as thin-film tension, geometric parameters, and ring mass blocks and the structural vibration characteristics, design the thin-film metamaterial structure, and determine the magnetic force required to be applied for regulation based on the magneto-control force relationship of the thin-film metamaterial;

[0069] S4. Determine the magnetic force application method and calibrate the influence of the magnetic force control parameters on the magnetic force of the ring mass block;

[0070] S5. Prepare a thin-film acoustic metamaterial based on the magneto-control mechanism to realize a switchable sound propagation mode.

[0071] In a specific embodiment:

[0072] In S1, the thin-film metamaterial acoustic-vibration coupling model is composed of an elastic thin film and concentric ring mass blocks. As Figure 2-1 shown, it is a schematic structural diagram of the thin-film metamaterial acoustic-vibration coupling model in the structure of the mode-switchable thin-film acoustic metamaterial based on the magneto-control mechanism in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; As Figure 2-2As shown in the figure, it is a physical photo of the thin-film metamaterial acoustic vibration coupling model in the mode-switchable thin-film type acoustic metamaterial structure based on the magneto-control mechanism in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; the thin-film metamaterial acoustic vibration coupling model is formed by bonding an elastic thin film with concentric ring masses to form a composite structure. Among them, the concentric ring masses are composed of ferromagnetic materials and paramagnetic materials and have a uniform areal density; since the stiffness of the concentric ring masses is much greater than that of the elastic thin film, they can be regarded as rigid bodies. The concentric ring masses are composed of copper and iron composites. Through height matching design, the areal density is ensured to be consistent. On the physical model, it can still be regarded as an axisymmetric system. The dynamic equation of the circular film vibration can be expressed as:

[0073]

[0074] where η is the displacement of the transverse vibration of the elastic thin film, σ0 is the radial stress generated by the initial tension of the elastic thin film, ρ is the density of the elastic thin film, f is the acoustic pressure load, t is the width of the ring mass, and r is the radial coordinate; at the boundary between the concentric ring mass and the elastic thin film, the displacement and velocity continuity conditions are followed;

[0075] Considering the continuity of the velocities on both sides of the thin film and ignoring the higher-order scattered waves, the relationship between the acoustic pressure load and the transmission coefficient is established as:

[0076] f = 2(1 - T0)

[0077] where T0 is the transmission coefficient under the incidence of plane waves;

[0078] The transverse deflection of the thin-film metamaterial is expressed by the modal superposition method. The selected vibration mode function is related to the target frequency band and is expressed as:

[0079]

[0080] where a total of N-order modes are selected, W n (R,θ) is the vibration mode function of the nth order in the polar coordinate system, q n (t) is the modal coefficient corresponding to the nth order mode. Considering the low-frequency band below the cut-off frequency of the waveguide and ignoring the influence of higher-order scattered waves, the far-field transmission coefficient is obtained as:

[0081] T0 = ρ a c a ωη>

[0082] where T0 is the transmission coefficient of the plane wave transmitted from the thin-film metamaterial to the far field, ρ a and c a are the density and wave speed of air respectively, ω is the excitation circular frequency of the plane wave, and <η> represents the average value of the transverse vibration displacement of the elastic thin film;

[0083] Considering the continuity of the velocities on both sides of the thin film and using the orthogonality of the thin-film metamaterial modes, the modal coefficients of each order are obtained by solving:

[0084]

[0085] where q n is the modal coefficient corresponding to the nth order mode, W n (R,θ) is the eigenfunction of the nth order mode in the polar coordinate system, ω n is the excitation circular frequency of the plane wave, T0 is the transmission coefficient of the plane wave transmitted from the thin-film metamaterial to the far field, ρ is the density of the thin-film metamaterial, and ω is the excitation circular frequency of the plane wave.

[0086] For an axisymmetric structural system, it can be divided into axisymmetric modes and antisymmetric modes. Under plane wave excitation, the integral of the antisymmetric mode eigenfunction on the surface of the structure is 0, and the corresponding modal coefficient is 0, which can be called a hidden mode. Therefore, under the condition of no magnetic field, the axisymmetric mode frequency and eigenfunction are the main factors determining the thin-film metamaterial;

[0087] In the S2, a permanent magnet is used to apply the magnetic field, and a permanent magnet magnetic force loading module is selected. It is a hollow cylindrical magnet composed of 14 small magnets (Nd-FeB) joined together, as Figure 3-1 shown, which is the structural schematic diagram of the hollow cylindrical magnet loading module composed of 14 small magnets (Nd-FeB) in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; in order to match the impedance tube, its inner diameter is designed to be 52 mm, the outer diameter is 80 mm, and the height is 100 mm; it can provide a magnetic field range of 0-1 T, and has a gradient magnetic field in the axial direction. By changing the relative distance between the magnetic field and the test sample, the magnetic force loading is realized;

[0088] To illustrate the influence of the magnetic force on the vibration mode of the thin film, the radial stress of the thin film in the states of no magnetic force and with magnetic force is selected, as Figure 3-2 shown, which is the distribution of the radial tension of the thin film before and after the magnetic field is applied in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; since the magnetic force only acts on the magnetic material part of the concentric ring mass block, the axisymmetry of the internal force of the circular film is changed by the magnetic force, and the structural vibration mode loses axisymmetry and antisymmetry. After the magnetic field is applied, the dynamic equation of the circular film vibration can be expressed as:

[0089]

[0090] where η is the displacement of the transverse vibration of the elastic thin film, σ0 is the radial stress generated by the initial tension of the elastic thin film, ρ is the density of the elastic thin film, f is the sound pressure load, t is the width of the ring mass, r is the radial coordinate, and σ m is the radial stress generated by the initial tension of the elastic thin film, and the distribution of the internal tension of the circular film can be obtained by numerical solution methods;

[0091] The first three modes of the thin film metamaterial are as follows Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the local force caused by the magnetic field changes the axisymmetry of the structural stress state, destroys the axisymmetric mode of the structure, and realizes the switching of the acoustic wave control mode; under the condition of no magnetic field, the first and third order modal vibration modes are both axisymmetric modes, and the second order modal vibration mode is an antisymmetric mode; under the condition of magnetic field, the symmetry of the model is broken, and the first three order modal vibration modes no longer have axisymmetry or antisymmetry. Under the action of plane waves, they are all dominant modes.

[0092] The first-order modal natural frequency is controlled by tension design and ring block mass design, the third-order modal natural frequency is controlled by ring block mass size design, and the magnetic force required to achieve the target frequency is determined by calculating the dynamic equation of circular membrane vibration after applying a magnetic field.

[0093] The film-type metamaterial and structure disclosed by the present invention have the characteristics of strong designability. It can be known from the modal vibration type that the first-order mode can be approximated as a spring-mass system, the elastic film outside the annular mass block (concentric annular mass block) is analogous to a spring, and the annular mass block is analogous to a mass block. Therefore, the first-order modal natural frequency can be controlled by tension design and annular block mass design; the third-order mode is mainly based on the vibration of the elastic film outside the annular mass block, which is similar to the vibration mode of the inner and outer diameter constrained annular membrane. Therefore, the third-order modal natural frequency can be controlled by the annular block mass size design, and the magnetic force size for achieving the target frequency is determined by calculating the dynamic equation of the vibration of the annular membrane after applying a magnetic field, and the relative position relationship between the permanent magnet and the film-type metamaterial is determined by magnetic force calibration;

[0094] When designing the annular mass block, the power consumption can be further reduced by increasing the proportion of magnetic material and reducing the requirement for the external magnetic field strength. In this embodiment 1, the proportion of the area of ​​the annular mass block occupied by the ferromagnetic material is 1 / 6;

[0095] In S3, the design target frequency is that the first and third order natural frequencies are 170 Hz and 1700 Hz respectively under the condition of no magnetic field; after the magnetic field is applied, the second order natural frequency appears at 600 Hz. Based on the acoustic-vibration coupling model of thin film metamaterials and the relationship between the magnetic control force, the structural parameters of the thin film metamaterials are designed as follows:

[0096] Table 1 Main design parameters of thin film metamaterial in Example 1

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] In S4, according to the structural design parameters, a mode-switchable thin-film type acoustic metamaterial structure based on the magneto-control mechanism is prepared. The thin film with a pre-tension is fixed to a paramagnetic metal circular sheet, and a circular mass block composed of a ferromagnetic material and a paramagnetic material is bonded to the center of the thin film to form an axisymmetric structure. The structure is fixed in a flange device for easy testing, assembly and application.

[0100] As Figure 7 shown, it is an assembly schematic diagram of the mode-switchable thin-film type acoustic metamaterial structure based on the magneto-control mechanism in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; the mode-switchable thin-film type acoustic metamaterial structure based on the magneto-control mechanism includes: a flange device, an elastic thin film, a paramagnetic metal circular sheet (which can be aluminum or other paramagnetic materials), a permanent magnet magnetic force loading module, and a circular mass block; the elastic thin film is fixed to the paramagnetic metal circular sheet, and the circular mass block composed of a ferromagnetic material and a paramagnetic material is bonded to the center of the thin film to form an axisymmetric structure. The axisymmetric structure is fixed in the flange device, and the distance between the permanent magnet magnetic force loading module and the axisymmetric structure is determined according to the magnetic force calibration result. The area ratio of the ferromagnetic material in the circular mass block is 1 / 6; the axisymmetric structure is fixed in the flange device; the axisymmetric structure is screwed to the flange device.

[0101] The permanent magnet magnetic force loading module is a hollow cylindrical magnet composed of 14 small magnets (Nd-FeB) joined together. As Figure 3-1 shown, it is a structural schematic diagram of the hollow cylindrical magnet loading module composed of 14 small magnets (Nd-FeB) in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; in order to match the impedance tube, its inner diameter is designed to be 52 mm, the outer diameter is 80 mm, and the height is 100 mm; the magnetic field range it can provide is 0 - 1 T, and it has a gradient magnetic field in the axial direction. By changing the relative distance between the magnetic field and the test sample, the magnetic force loading can be realized.

[0102] According to the acoustic vibration coupling model of the thin-film type metamaterial, using the design parameters adopted in Table 1, the band diagram is calculated. As Figure 5-1 shown, it is the band diagram of the thin-film type acoustic metamaterial without applying a magnetic field in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; as Figure 5-2 shown, it is the simulation result and experimental verification result of the transmission coefficient of the thin-film type acoustic metamaterial without applying a magnetic field in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; among them, the gray area indicates that the wave vector is a complex number and decays along the acoustic wave propagation direction, that is, a band gap appears; adopting the local resonance mechanism, the band gap width of the thin-film type acoustic metamaterial is determined by the resonance frequency and the anti-resonance frequency. Therefore, by regulating the local resonance characteristics of the structure, the control of the acoustic wave transmission mode can be realized; further, through the standing wave tube test method, the transmission performance of the thin-film type acoustic metamaterial designed in Embodiment 1 without a magnetic field is measured and compared with the design target for verification, proving the effectiveness of the present invention.

[0104] Under the condition of plane wave incidence, without the action of a magnetic field, the axisymmetry of the excitation and the structure makes the structure vibration mainly dominated by the axisymmetric mode; after applying a magnetic field, the local magnetic force breaks the axisymmetry of the internal force of the structure, exciting more dominant modes, realizing the magneto-control mechanism, and based on the modal vibration mode characteristics, the mode-switchable thin-film acoustic metamaterial structure based on the magneto-control mechanism has the characteristic of strong designability, and finally realizes non-contact and discontinuous regulation.

The mode-switchable thin-film acoustic metamaterial structure based on the magneto-control mechanism proposed by the present invention can realize non-contact, discontinuous regulation, realizing a sudden change in the structural acoustic performance, providing a new means for bandgap regulation, equivalent parameter dispersion control, etc.

[0106] The present invention adopts the above method. For the thin-film metamaterial composed of additional mass blocks and a thin film, first establish an acoustic-vibration coupling model, and then establish the influence relationship of the magnetic force on the vibration performance of the thin-film structure. According to the design target, design the thin-film metamaterial structure, determine the magnetic force required to be applied for regulation, then calibrate the magnetic force of the ring mass block according to the magnetic force action mode, and finally prepare the thin-film acoustic metamaterial based on the magneto-control mechanism to realize the switchable sound propagation mode.

[0107] The mode-switchable thin-film acoustic metamaterial structure based on the magneto-control mechanism proposed by the present invention can realize non-contact, discontinuous, and rapid regulation, realizing a sudden change in the structural acoustic performance, providing a new means for bandgap regulation, equivalent parameter dispersion control, etc.; moreover, the regulation of the thin-film acoustic metamaterial based on the magneto-control mechanism is simple and has strong designability, improving the adaptability to different application scenarios.
