Micro-perforated panel (MPP) absorbers with circular perforations are used in many noise control applications due to their attractive wide-brand sound absorption performance. Different from a common MPP with circular perforations, a unique type of MPP absorber with petal-shaped perforations is proposed. The sound absorption theory for the MPP with petal-shaped perforations is developed by accurately considering the fluid velocity in the petal-shaped perforation hole. This theory can account for the effect of altered perforation morphology (from circular to petal) on sound absorption. Finite element simulations are performed to validate the proposed theory, with good agreement achieved. The sound absorption of MPP with petal-shaped perforations is compared with that of the traditional MPP with the same porosity. It is demonstrated that the change in hole shape significantly modifies the fluid velocity field and the flow resistivity in/of the hole, and hence the sound absorption of the proposed MPP with petal-shaped perforations can outperform that of the traditional MPP in the considered case. This work proposes a general MPP theory that not only contains the classical Maa's theory for circular MPP, but also accounts for the MPP with petal-shaped perforations.

Multispectral optoacoustic tomography is a promising medical imaging modality that combines light and sound to provide molecular imaging information at depths of several centimeters, based on the optical absorption of endogenous chromophores, such as hemoglobin. Assessment of inflammatory bowel disease has emerged as a promising clinical application of optoacoustic tomography. In this context, preclinical studies in animal models are essential to identify novel disease-specific imaging biomarkers and understand findings from emerging clinical pilot studies, however to-date, these studies have been limited by the precise identification of the bowel wall.

Faced with all kinds of serious ecological and environmental protection problems in today's society, development must take the sustainable and green road. Nanocellulose aerogels with the advantages of wide resource of raw materials, low cost, good biocompatibility and biodegradation, are good thermal and sound insulation materials. Herein, a versatile composite aerogel with good thermal stability and heat-insulating property was prepared by freeze-drying method using cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), waterborne polyurethane (WPU) and sepiolite (SEP) as substrates.

The behavior of triple-cation mixed halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) under ultrashort laser pulse irradiation at varying fluences is investigated, with a focus on local heating effects observed in femtosecond transient absorption (TA) studies. The carrier cooling time constant is found to increase from 230 fs at 2 µJ cm⁻ to 1.3 ps at 2 mJ cm⁻ while the charge population decay accelerates from tens of nanoseconds to the picosecond range within the same fluence range.

This research presents a method based on deep learning for the reverse design of sound-absorbing structures. Traditional methods require time-consuming individual numerical simulations followed by cumbersome calculations, whereas the deep learning design method significantly simplifies the design process, achieving efficient and rapid design objectives. By utilizing deep neural networks, a mapping relationship between structural parameters and the sound absorption coefficient curve is established.
