Summary

This special issue provides a unique space to present and discuss the recent developments in green acoustic absorbers. We welcome submissions of comprehensive and innovative idea papers, on the latest methodologies and practical applications of green sound absorbers in buildings and/or for noise control in industries.


Contributions across a wide spectrum of topics are encouraged, including but not limited to:

· Natural fibers for sustainable sound absorbers

· Micro-perforated panel (MPP)

· Sound absorber from natural wasted material

· Sustainable granular sound absorbers

· Meta-material acoustic absorbers

· Analytical and numerical simulation of green acoustics absorbers


Your contributions are integral to advancing our understanding of green acoustic absorbers and driving progress in contributing towards a green environment.
