Abstract
Membrane-type acoustic metamaterials (MAMs) with negative dynamic mass have demonstrated the effects in the sound transmission loss (STL) at low-frequency range. This research aims to design a membrane-type acoustic metamaterial muffler (MAMM) based on the present MAMs, and to solve the problem that airflow cannot flow unimpededly in the channel once using the MAMs. For a better understanding of MAMM, the resonance frequency of the membrane was calculated and simulation was used to study the acoustic transmission performance of the MAMM. The simulation results were verified in comparison with the theoretical results of the membrane. This MAMM reduced the structural size of muffler compared with the traditional Helmholtz muffler and expand muffler, which can find application for the MAMs in acoustic absorption and noise control.
