    摘要: Acoustic absorption or vibration damping materials are produced by mixing at least two species of particles into a restricted amount of matrix material in order to produce an acoustic absorption or vibration damping material with tortuous passageways throughout the material. The tortuous passageways of the instant invention serve to: a) reduce acoustic reflectivity at the surface, b) provide channels within which the interfacing medium such as air can interact viscously, c) increase the surface area between interfacing media and, d) improve structural stiffness by adding thickness without adding weight. Particle species within the matrix material are differentiated by their acoustic impedances. A particle species of particular interest is crumb tire rubber from used tires. This material is inexpensive and its use in this application has the societal advantage of making productive use of a material that is currently polluting the environment.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a method for producing a metal structure having holes dispersed in a matrix and having inorganic particles disposed inside the holes, that are capable of moving in the holes independently of the matrix, the method making it possible to increase the proportion of inorganic particles in the metal structure that are capable of moving in the holes independently of the matrix. In the method for producing a metal structure whereby inorganic particles are disposed inside holes dispersed in a matrix so as to be capable of moving independently of the matrix, the hollow particles covering the inorganic particles which are distributed in the matrix of the metal structure are fragmented so that the inorganic particles are disposed inside the holes formed by fragmenting the hollow particles.

    摘要: An acoustic element includes a nanovoided polymer layer having a first nanovoid topology in an unactuated state and a second nanovoid topology different than the first nanovoid topology in an actuated state. Capacitive actuation of the nanovoided polymer layer, for instance, can be used to reversibly control the size and shape of the nanovoids within the polymer layer and hence tune its sound damping characteristics or sound transduction behavior, e.g., during operation of the acoustic element. An acoustic element may be configured for passive or active sound attenuation. Various other apparatuses, systems, materials, and methods are also disclosed.

    摘要: Occlusion devices, earpiece devices and methods of forming occlusion devices are provided. An occlusion device is configured to occlude an ear canal, but other biological and non-biological conduits or chambers can be occluded using the devices and methods herein. The occlusion device includes an insertion element and at least one occluding member or element (which can be expandable) disposed on the insertion element. The occluding member is configured to receive a medium via the insertion element and is configured to expand, responsive to the medium, to contact the ear canal. Alternatively, the occluding member is made of a non-Newtonian fluid and can be enclosed by a balloon or not. Physical parameters of the occlusion device are selected to produce a predetermined sound attenuation characteristic over a frequency band. Use of a non-Newtonian fluid provides additional options or variables in customizing or designing a predetermined sound attenuation characteristic.

    摘要: A vehicular interior part includes a sound absorbing member including a hole cover section covering a panel-side hole of a panel in which a functional part is to be arranged, a panel cover section covering the panel, slits arranged between the hole cover section and the panel cover section. The slit includes a peripheral extending portion extending along a hole edge of the panel-side hole and a projecting portion extending from an end of the peripheral extending portion toward the panel cover section and a continuous part is between the projection portions of the adjacent slits. The hole cover section is to be torn off from the sound absorbing member at the continuous parts to be separated from the panel cover section and form a hole such that the functional part in the panel-side hole is to be exposed through the panel-side hole and the hole.
