A direct and inverse method is proposed for measuring the thickness and flow resistivity of a rigid air-saturated porous material using acoustic reflected waves at low frequency. The equivalent fluid model is considered. The interactions between the structure and the fluid are taken by the dynamic tortuosity of the medium introduced by Johnson et al. and the dynamic compressibility of the air introduced by Allard. A simplified expression of the reflection coefficient is obtained at very low frequencies domain (Darcy’s regime). This expression depends only on the thickness and flow resistivity of the porous medium. The simulated reflected signal of the direct problem is obtained by the product of the experimental incident signal and the theoretical reflection coefficient. The inverse problem is solved numerically by minimizing between simulated and experimental reflected signals. The tests are carried out using two samples of polyurethane plastic foam with different thicknesses and resistivity. The inverted values of thickness and flow resistivity are compared with those obtained by conventional methods giving good results.

Abstract This paper is concerned with the modelling of rigid-frame porous materials. Currently there are very simple models which describe the acoustic behaviour of such materials, and there are also very complicated models. The aim of this paper is to present a model which occupies the “middle ground”, but is simple enough to be used by practising noise control engineers. Using concepts of acoustic mass, stiffness and damping, non-dimensional expressions for the acoustic wavenumber and the characteristic impedance of a rigid-frame porous material are derived. These expressions are used to give a “rule of thumb” for the optimum flow resistivity for a given thickness of material.

This paper presents a study on the sound absorption properties of a single layer date palm fiber based on the flow resistivity. Experimental measurements were carried out to estimate the flow resistivity value using differential pressure tube. The average diameter of the fibers is 0.462 mm. A date palm fiber sample of 25mm thickness is used in this research. The flow resistivity of the date palm fiber sample was found to be 4.26 kPa.s/m2. The flow resistivity was used to calculate the sound absorption coefficient using Delany and Bazley model. The simulation showed that the values of absorption coefficient are small at low frequencies and rising with increasing frequency. To check the effect of flow resistivity on the sound absorption coefficient Delany and Bazley model was simulated for three different flow resistivity values. The simulation results showed that the sound absorption coefficient increases with the increase of the flow resistivity.
