Abstract A modern approach to control sound is through the development of sound-control materials/structures, which enable a wide range of applications such as noise reduction and non-contact particle manipulation. Designing these sound-controlling metamaterials requires accurate and efficient simulation methods for solving the unbounded acoustic wave equation with changing domain and frequencies. To facilitate the design optimization, surrogate models that are significantly more efficient than full-scale simulations are highly desirable. In this work, we present our recent work on the development of such surrogate models based on the concept of Fourier neural operators (FNO). FNO was originally… More >

Abstract The emergence of 3D printing opens new possibilities for the development of advanced and innovative metamaterials, particularly in the realm of microlattices. Microlattices are characterized as periodic cellular solids with submillimeter-sized features, such as struts, shells, or plates, arranged spatially in a three-dimensional way. Herein, based on four published studies, we provide a perspective on the design, employing analytical and numerical methods, as well as the performance of 3D-printed microlattices for sound absorption.
The first study focuses on face-centered cubic-based plate and truss structures [1]. Impedance tube measurements reveal that all the microlattices display absorption curves… More >

Abstract A pentagon plate-shaped metamaterial with resonators inside is designed, and both sides are covered with PVC membranes. The components are designed with sloped exterior walls and can form a regular dodecahedron metacage. The effect of the single component is based on the vibration of the membranes, when the size of two membranes has the same size, the transmission loss appears to be significant around 900 Hz and have another peak around 1400 Hz. When use twelve components to form a regular dodecahedron metacage, with a diameter of less than half a meter, a measurement of… More >

Abstract This research advances the field by focusing on the damage assessment of adhesively bonded joints using AE, with limited prior studies in this specific area. Through the preparation of CFRP specimens and subsequent tensile loading tests, AE signals were captured and analyzed. The study employed wavelet decomposition for noise reduction and Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) for signal analysis, facilitating the identification of damage-related frequencies and amplitudes. Hierarchical clustering was applied to categorize AE signals into distinct damage behaviors, utilizing a divisive approach that avoids local minima and offers unique results at each iteration. The method's… More >

Abstract In video surveillance, anomaly detection requires training machine learning models on spatio-temporal video sequences. However, sometimes the video-only data is not sufficient to accurately detect all the abnormal activities. Therefore, we propose a novel audio-visual spatiotemporal autoencoder specifically designed to detect anomalies for video surveillance by utilizing audio data along with video data. This paper presents a competitive approach to a multi-modal recurrent neural network for anomaly detection that combines separate spatial and temporal autoencoders to leverage both spatial and temporal features in audio-visual data. The proposed model is trained to produce low reconstruction error… More >

Abstract Cavity closed with a thin plate is a common structure in aircrafts, such as landing gear compartments and skin skeletons. The plate undergoing aerodynamic pressure on top is generally vibrating in the amplitude of thickness, which will induce an acoustic pressure in the cavity underneath and it will further affect the panel response. Considering both aerodynamic and acoustic pressure on the panel, there will be an interest to investigate the aero-acoustic-structure coupling mechanism and the aeroacoustoelastic response of the plate. Von Karman plate theory, piston theory and two-dimensional partial differential acoustic equation are employed for… More >

Abstract Acoustic and Electromagnetic Metamaterials/Metasurface have demonstrated various fascinating functionalities in wave manipulation. However, further employment of the manipulated wave for controlling the movement of discrete particle matter is not so widely investigated. Particle matter, also known as granular matter, granular material etc, is the most common form of matter in nature, and so the effective control of granular matter is closely related to engineering and daily life. The use of sound waves and electromagnetic waves to manipulate the granular matter has been widely used in printing, environmental protection, pharmaceuticals and many other fields. However, in… More >

Abstract The underwater explosion could cause the serious damage to the naval ships. Investigating the underwater explosion problem is crucial for the development of marine military power. During the recent years, the underwater explosion dynamics in the homogeneous fluid field has been investigated by lots of researchers. However, there often exist sound speed thermoclines in the real ocean environment, which leads to a more complex fluid environment than the homogeneous fluid. The corresponding numerical calculations become more complicated. In order to fully understand the underwater explosion dynamics in the real ocean environment, we perform the numerical… More >
