In the recent decade, there are increasing numbers of reported studies on the use of
acoustic black hole (ABH) effects for the damping of flexural vibrations in engineering …

An acoustic black hole (ABH) is a pit of power law profile inserted in a plate with internal
damping. Such a pit with varying thickness leads to local variations of wave propagation …

An inhomogeneous fluid structure waveguide reproducing passive behaviour of the inner
ear is modelled with the help of the Wentzel–Kramers–Brillouin method. A physical setup is …

The development of novel passive techniques for vibration attenuation and control of
broadband energy propagation through structural systems have been a major challenge in …

Vibration damping of mechanical structures is playing an important role in the design of
many industrial systems. Classical methods for reducing vibrations using viscoelastic layers …

The purpose of this work is to characterise the vibro-acoustic behaviour of rectangular flat
panels reinforced by “unconventional” stiffeners. Such panels are being increasingly …

The article presents theoretical and experimental results concerning vibration reduction of
beams and plates using Acoustic Black Hole (ABH) effect. ABH is a passive technique which …

Les ondes élastiques qui se propagent dans les plaques minces constituent un outil
performant pour l'étude fondamentale des ondes en milieux complexes. Elles permettent …

Inner ear is constituted of fluid-filled ducts partitioned with an elastic structure, the organ of
Corti. When the ear is excited by sound, travelling waves appear along the organ of Corti …

In the context of acoustic black hole investigations, recent works have proposed the use of a
spatial statespace formulation for one-dimensional elastic waveguides. The boundary value …
