Integration of active control with a compound acoustic black hole

Integration of active control with a compound acoustic black hole
Acoustic Black Holes (ABHs) achieve high levels of vibration control with low or negative weight requirements depending on the designed configuration. ABHs are generally realised by introducing a reducing thickness profile into a structure, which reduces the flexural wave speed, decreases the wavelength of vibration and, therefore, enhances the functional performance of damping treatment applied to the ABH. The control bandwidth of ABHs is limited by the taper length and various measures to increase the low frequency performance have been explored, including the integration of active control. Another practical limiting factor for ABHs is their susceptibility to damage due to the potential for high strain in the taper. Various design modifications have been proposed to improve the ABH strength whilst maintaining control performance, including the compound ABH. This paper will investigate the integration of active control into a compound ABH, proposing possible design configurations and exploring the potential performance.

Abstract

Acoustic Black Holes (ABHs) achieve high levels of vibration control with low or negative weight requirements depending on the designed configuration. ABHs are generally realised by introducing a reducing thickness profile into a structure, which reduces the flexural wave speed, decreases the wavelength of vibration and, therefore, enhances the functional performance of damping treatment applied to the ABH. The control bandwidth of ABHs is limited by the taper length and various measures to increase the low frequency performance have been explored, including the integration of active control. Another practical limiting factor for ABHs is their susceptibility to damage due to the potential for high strain in the taper. Various design modifications have been proposed to improve the ABH strength whilst maintaining control performance, including the compound ABH. This paper will investigate the integration of active control into a compound ABH, proposing possible design configurations and exploring the potential performance.
