Abstract:An innovative structure, composed of coiled acoustic metamaterials having a point defect, is proposed to collect and amplify the low-frequency broadband acoustic waves. Numerical simulation and experiment were introduced to analyze the sound collection mechanism of the structure. The impacts of the structural parameters on sound collection performances were further studied. Results reveal that the center and around cavities obviously amplify the sound pressures under the excitation of incident waves at 222 Hz, 362 Hz, 385 Hz, 408 Hz and 511 Hz. These characteristics can be attributed to the acoustic siphon effect of different cavities and their coupling resonances. The regulation of sound collection effect can be achieved by matching the structural parameters. In general, a structure tends to have better broadband low-frequency sound collection when it has a larger center cavity, longer and more partitions. The experimental results prove the sound collection of the proposed structure. Those results obtained herein, can be used as a guide toward achieving low-frequency broadband sound energy collection.
