Band structures and localization properties of aperiodic layered phononic crystals

The band structures and localization properties of in-plane elastic waves with coupling of longitudinal and transverse modes oblique propagating in aperiodic phononic crystals based on Thue-Morse and Rudin-Shapiro sequences are studied. Using transfer matrix method, the concept of the localization factor is introduced and the correctness is testified through the Rytov dispersion relation. For comparison, the perfect periodic structure and the quasi-periodic Fibonacci system are also considered. In addition, the influences of the random disorder, local resonance, translational and/or mirror symmetries on the band structures of the aperiodic phononic crystals are analyzed in this paper.     

Wave propagation in one-dimensional solid-fluid quasi-periodic and aperiodic phononic crystals

The propagation of the elastic waves in one-dimensional (1D) solid-fluid quasi-periodic phononic crystals is studied by employing the concept of the localization factor, which is calculated by the transfer matrix method. The solid-fluid interaction effect at the interfaces between the solid and the fluid components is considered. For comparison, the periodic systems and aperiodic Thue-Morse sequence are also analyzed in this paper. The splitting phenomenon of the pass bands and bandgaps are discussed for these 1D solid-fluid systems. At last the influences of the material impedance ratios on the band structures of the 1D solid-fluid quasi-periodic phononic crystals arranged as Fibonacci sequence are discussed.     

An Analysis of Structural-Acoustic Coupling Band Gaps in a Fluid-Filled Periodic Pipe

A periodic pipe system composed of steel pipes and rubber hoses with the same inner radius is designed based on the theory of phononic crystals. Using the transfer matrix method, the band structure of the periodic pipe is calculated considering the structural-acoustic coupling. The results show that longitudinal vibration band gaps and acoustic band gaps can coexist in the fluid-filled periodic pipe. The formation of the band gap mechanism is further analyzed. The band gaps are validated by the sound transmission loss and vibration-frequency response functions calculated using the finite element method. The effect of the damp on the band gap is analyzed by calculating the complex band structure. The periodic pipe system can be used not only in the field of vibration reduction but also for noise elimination.

Elastic wave localization in two-dimensional phononic crystals with one-dimensional random disorder and aperiodicity

The band structures of in-plane elastic waves propagating in two-dimensional phononic crystals with one-dimensional random disorder and aperiodicity are analyzed in this paper. The localization of wave propagation is discussed by introducing the concept of the localization factor, which is calculated by the plane-wave-based transfer-matrix method. By treating the random disorder and aperiodicity as the deviation from the periodicity in a special way, three kinds of aperiodic phononic crystals that have normally distributed random disorder, Thue-Morse and Rudin-Shapiro sequence in one direction and translational symmetry in the other direction are considered and the band structures are characterized using localization factors. Besides, as a special case, we analyze the band gap properties of a periodic planar layered composite containing a periodic array of square inclusions. The transmission coefficients based on eigen-mode matching theory are also calculated and the results show the same behaviors as the localization factor does. In the case of random disorders, the localization degree of the normally distributed random disorder is larger than that of the uniformly distributed random disorder although the eigenstates are both localized no matter what types of random disorders, whereas, for the case of Thue-Morse and Rudin-Shapiro structures, the band structures of Thue-Morse sequence exhibit similarities with the quasi-periodic (Fibonacci) sequence not present in the results of the Rudin-Shapiro sequence.     

Vibration reduction by using the idea of phononic crystals in a pipe-conveying fluid

Flexural vibration in a pipe system conveying fluid is studied. The pipe is designed using the idea of the phononic crystals. Using the transfer matrix method, the complex band structure of the flexural wave is calculated to investigate the gap frequency range and the vibration reduction in band gap. Gaps with Bragg scattering mechanism and locally resonant mechanism can exist in a piping system with fluid loading. The effects of various parameters on the gaps are considered. The existence of flexural vibration gaps in a periodic pipe with fluid loading lends new insight into the vibration control of pipe system.     

Band structures of Fibonacci phononic quasicrystals

The paper studies the band structures of a two-component Fibonacci phononic quasicrystal which is considered as a phononic crystal disordered in a special way. Oblique propagation in an arbitrary direction of the in-plane elastic waves with coupling of longitudinal and transverse modes is considered. The transfer matrix method is used and the well-defined localization factors which are used to study the ordered and disordered phononic crystals are introduced to describe the band gaps of the phononic quasicrystals. The transmission coefficients are also calculated and the results show the same behaviours as the localization factor does. The results show the merits of using the localization factors. The band gaps of the phononic quasicrystal and crystals with translational and/or mirror symmetries are presented and compared to the perfect phononic crystals. More band structures are exhibited when symmetries are introduced to the phononic quasicrystals.     

Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of Flexural Vibration Transfer Properties of High-Pressure Periodic Pipe

According to the theory of phononic crystals,the hydraulic pipeline is designed to be a periodic structure composed of steel pipes and hoses to suppress the vibration of the hydraulic system with band gaps.We present theoretical and experimental investigations into the flexural vibration transfer properties of a high-pressure periodic pipe with the force on the inner pipe wall by oil pressure taken into consideration.The results show that the vibration attenuation of periodic pipe decreases along with the elevation of working pressure for the hydraulic system,and the band gaps in low frequency ranges move towards high frequency ranges.The periodic pipe has good vibration attenuation performance in the frequency range below 1000 Hz and the vibration of the hydrauhc system is effectively suppressed.All the results are validated by experiment.The experimental results show a good agreement with the numerical calculations,thus the flexural vibration transfer properties of the highpressure periodic pipe can be precisely calculated by taking the Quid structure interaction between the pipe and oil into consideration.This study provides an effective way for the vibration control of the hydraulic system.
