The finite element model was developed by using the size-based Euler–Bernoulli beam model, modified piezoelectricity theory, and Galerkin's weighted residual method. The boron nitride nanosheet-reinforced nanobeam was loaded with uniformly distributed load and point-loading conditions. Three common boundary conditions for beams such as clamped-free, simply supported, and clamped-clamped have been considered here. The electromechanical behavior of the boron nitride nanosheet reinforced nanobeam has been studied under the pure surface, pure flexoelectric, as well as combined surface and flexoelectric effects. It is observed that the integrated surface and flexoelectric effects are mainly responsible for enhancing the electromechanical performance of ...

Research paper thumbnail of Improvement of the sound absorption performance of jute felt-based sound absorbers using micro-perforated panels

Natural materials are now gaining importance in the noise control engineering as they have advantages like low cost, eco-friendly, easy to produce, etc. Jute is one of such natural materials, which can be used as a sound-absorbing material. Micro-perforated panels along with three different types of jute felts are used in a multilayer sound absorber configuration to improve its sound absorption. The sound absorption performance of these multilayer sound absorbers is evaluated by using the transfer matrix method and experimental method. Dependence of sound absorption performance on the placement of micro-perforated panels in a multilayer sound absorber is also studied. It is observed that the sound absorption performance depends on the position of micro-perforated panels in a multilayer sound absorber.

Measurement of these non-acoustical parameters is not straightforward and involves a dedicated measurement setup. So in order to overcome this issue, the inverse acoustical characterization can be used. In this paper, the particle swarm optimization method (PSO) is used as an optimization method. This method estimates the non-acoustical parameters of jute material in felt form by minimizing the error between experimental and theoretical sound absorption data. In this work, the impedance prediction models for fibrous materials like Johnson–Champoux–Allard model with rigid and limp frame and Garai–Pompoli model is used for sound absorption coefficient calculation by the transfer matrix method along with the PSO. The inverse estimated non-acoustical parameters for jute material are then compared with estimated and experimentally measured parameters for jute felts. Using these inversely predicted parameters, sound absorption of multilayer sound absorbers is also studied.

In this study, the acoustical characterization of three different types of natural jute felt material is performed by an experimental method and by using the Dunn and Davern model, along with an inverse characterization method. There are many empirical models available in the literature which describes the acoustical behavior of specific material accurately, as they are specially developed for that material. In this study, the possibility of using only the air flow resistivity based Delany–Bazley model and the Dunn–Davern model for acoustical performance prediction of jute material is tested. However, these two models do not show good matching with the experimental data throughout the frequency range of interest. Particularly in the low frequency region, the level of mismatch between experimental and model data is high. Therefore the inverse prediction of the coefficients [Fo...
