Estimation of all six parameters of Johnson-Champoux-Allard-Lafarge model for acoustical porous materials from impedance tube measurements.

The open porosity of air-saturated acoustical porous materials is estimated from the low-frequency or high-frequency asymptotes of the real part of the dynamic bulk modulus. Combining this technique with the estimation of the static air-flow resistivity from the low-frequency asymptote of the imaginary part of the dynamic mass density and the analytical inversions of the remaining parameters from the dynamic mass density and bulk modulus [methods introduced by Panneton and Olny, J. Acoust.

Characterizing a porous road pavement using surface impedance measurement: a guided numerical inversion procedure.

This paper deals with a numerical procedure to identify the acoustical parameters of road pavement from surface impedance measurements. This procedure comprises three steps. First, a suitable equivalent fluid model for the acoustical properties porous media is chosen, the variation ranges for the model parameters are set, and a sensitivity analysis for this model is performed.

The effect of particle shape and size distribution on the acoustical properties of mixtures of hemp particles.

Hemp concrete is an attractive alternative to traditional materials used in building construction. It has a very low environmental impact, and it is characterized by high thermal insulation. Hemp aggregate particles are parallelepiped in shape and can be organized in a plurality of ways to create a considerable proportion of open pores with a complex connectivity pattern, the acoustical properties of which have never been examined systematically.
