Abstract
In a society where the vast majority of people spend their time inside buildings or vehicles, the need to filter the air is essential to ensure a certain level of comfort. The integration of air exchanger systems in these enclosed spaces generates noise pollution which can deteriorate the quality of the air. Thus, controlling the noise generated by these systems becomes a major challenge for the construction industry. Recent traditional solutions such as acoustic sonic crystals only allow high frequency noise control. One solution is the incorporation of inner structured acoustic materials for the control of low frequency transmission. This paper proposes a coupling of sonic crystals and structural acoustic materials for the control of sound transmission at low and high frequencies. To achieve this, research and simulations of the acoustic properties of various metamaterial models under the COMSOL software were established as well as a system of the selected solutions, using the transfer matrix method. Experimental impedance tube analyses are being carried out for varying geometries, along with a fabrication method for prototyping.
