Abstract
The purpose of this research is to develop a simple sound-reducing shade to enjoy playing music at home. The requirements for the shade are relatively inexpensive, foldable, suitable size and acoustic environment for playing, and most importantly sound dampening ability. Normally, the development of such a product requires many prototypes and verifications, but in this research, by utilizing finite element analysis (FEM), it is possible to find the optimum material and shape without producing a large number of prototypes. In this paper, we examined the performance of sound-reducing shades by investigating existing products, and in order to solve the problem with them, we designed a new sound-reducing shade that incorporates the ideas of Origami and Kirigami engineering. We also report the results of the feasibility study by FEM analysis of the sound-reducing shade.
