A mechanism study of sound wave-trapping barriers

Abstract: The performance of a sound barrier is usually degraded if a large reflecting surface is placed on the source side. A wave-trapping barrier (WTB), with its inner surface covered by wedge-shaped structures, has been proposed to confine waves within the area between the barrier and the reflecting surface, and thus improve the performance. In this paper, the deterioration in performance of a conventional sound barrier due to the reflecting surface is first explained in terms of the resonance effect of the trapped … Show more

“…To verify the accuracy of the finite element modeling adopt in this paper, the performance of the parallel barrier model investigated in the work of Yang et al 7 is predicted by the current finite element modeling, and then it is compared with those results presented in the work of Yang et al by BEM. The geometrical configuration investigated in the work of Yang et al is very similar to that used in this paper, except that the source in Ref.…”

“…Another solution is to use novel barrier arrangements such as inclined barriers 15 and multiple wedges. 7,11 Such barriers reduce sound diffraction at the edges of parallel barriers, but their profiles are usually complex.…”

“…For example, when the radiated sound pressure by a point source within a pair of noise barriers was expanded by eigenmodes solved numerically using perfectly matched layers (PML), the correct response could only be found at the resonance frequencies. 6 The difficultymight be owing to the non-orthogonality and incompleteness of the frequency-independent eigenmodes (the resonance modes) associated with the acoustic resonance frequencies and modal damping ratio. [6][7][8] As a result, the sound pressure expanded by the frequency-independent eigenmodes of the open cavity may have a convergence issue, which inevitably gives rise to an ambiguity in the selection of basis functions, i.e., if the resonance modes do not work for modal expansion, then what are the suitable basis functions?…”
