Vibration Reduction Using Porous Acoustic Black Holes Based on Reduced Multibody System Transfer Matrix Method
摘要
Acoustic black holes (ABHs) control vibration energy through geometric design. ABH-based non-invasive dynamic vibration absorbers (DVAs) dampen vibrations without compromising structural strength. However, conventional power-law thickness ABHs suffer from end deformation and truncation due to manufacturing constraints and stress relaxation. This study proposes a porous ABH-DVA design that avoids these variable-thickness issues by modulating material properties (density, stiffness) via material gradient porosity. The porous ABH-DVA’s vibration-absorbing effect as an attached DVA is examined on a primary cantilever beam structure. The reduced multibody systems transfer matrix method (RMSTMM) computes the system’s steady-state responses and characteristic frequencies. Comparisons with finite element method (FEM) results confirm RMSTMM’s computational efficiency. This work presents new opportunities for engineering applications of ABH technology.
