Summary: This study examines the design of compact low-frequency anechoic terminations and their application in the characterization of acoustic materials. By comparing the absorption performance of highly porous micro-capillary plates (MCPs) and micro-perforated panels (MPPs), it is found that MCPs with suitable channel diameters have superior acoustic efficiency and broadband absorption. Whether unbacked or backed by a rigid cavity, MCPs demonstrate high absorption performance over a wide frequency range.

Summary: This study investigates the underwater sound absorption and insulation performance of elastic micro-perforated plates (MPPs) in circular impedance tubes. By considering the interaction between water and the vibration of the MPPs, the sound absorption coefficient and sound transmission loss (STL) of the elastic MPPs are calculated. The predictions from this study show good agreement with the results obtained from the finite element method (FEM), and the fluid-structure interaction significantly affects the vibration of the MPP.

Summary: A two-dimensional dual-graded anechoic coating (2D DGAC) has been proposed for absorbing underwater sound waves, which consists of background material, graded solid cores, and graded cavities. Numerical investigation shows that the 2D DGAC has better sound absorption performance compared to the 2D mono-graded anechoic coating (MGAC) and uniform anechoic coating (UAC), thanks to the dual contribution of multi-cavity resonances and multi-local resonances.

Summary: In this paper, the sound absorption performance of micro perforated plates (MPPs) with acoustic black hole (ABH) back cavities is investigated using the finite element method. Finite element models of MPPs with sealed back cavities and ABH back cavities are developed. The simulation results show an increase of 63.8% in absorption bandwidth for the ABH back cavities compared to the sealed back cavity of the same size, but the frequency of the highest absorption coefficient is increased as well. The study also analyzes the effect of different cavity numbers of stages and lengths on the sound absorption performance, providing a reference value for acoustic modulation.

Summary: An investigation into a smart micro-perforated panel aims to enhance the sound absorption performance of MPP absorbers at low frequencies, utilizing a combination of mechanical damping, electrical shunt damping, and Helmholtz resonance. Different multimode shunt design methods are explored to intensify panel vibration and improve sound absorption, with absorption peaks induced by electromechanical coupling found at frequencies lower than the MPP's Helmholtz resonance frequency.

Summary: The role of micro-vortex generators (MVGs) in reducing supersonic jet noise is investigated in this study. Experimental and numerical simulation results show that MVGs can interact with the shock cell structure of the jet plume and modify its core velocities, leading to a significant reduction in jet noise. These findings have important implications for the design and development of noise reduction technologies for supersonic jet engines.

Summary: This work focuses on the acoustical performance limitations of cylindrical silencers made up of annular ring resonators with axial gradient of their cavity depths. It is shown that a sub-wavelength silencer with optimized acoustic black hole (ABH) properties can be designed through which incident sound waves are retarded and fully dissipated within the activated resonant cavities. Key parameters that influence this balance are the axial growth of cavity depths and the wall porosity. A causal-based criterion has been proposed to maximize the total integrated dissipated power and determine the optimal porosity and bandwidth-to-length ratio.

Summary: Non-uniformity and damage are the main focus in studying vibrations of beam elements. An exact closed-form explicit solution for the transverse displacement of a nonuniform multi-cracked beam is introduced using generalized functions and distributional derivative concepts. By introducing non-dimensional parameters, the motion equation and its closed-form solution are obtained based on four fundamental functions. The impact of crack count, location, intensity, and boundary conditions on natural frequency and mode shape is evaluated through numerical study.

Summary: In this paper, the authors improve the surface morphology method and study the bit-rock interaction model between the rock and the PDC bit, taking into account the impact of blade shape and cutter arrangement. They establish a dynamic model for a deep drilling system equipped with an arbitrary shape PDC bit and propose a stability prediction method. The results show that the shape of the blades and arrangement of the cutters on the PDC bit significantly affect the nonlinear vibration of the drilling system.

Summary: In modern LPT designs, the simultaneous presence of forced response and flutter in different operation regimes is unavoidable. Recent evidence suggests that the traditional linear superposition method may be overly conservative. This study examines the flutter and forced response interaction in a realistic low pressure turbine rotor and confirms that the actual response is much smaller than that predicted by linear superposition.
