Control of Sound Radiation From Structures with Periodic Smart Skins

An innovative implementation of the skin concept for the reduction of the radiated sound power from a vibrating structure is proposed. The skin has a periodic structure and continuously covers a vibrating beam. Thus, this skin decouples the vibrating structure from the acoustic field by modifying th...
