Acoustic Control
control of airborne sound using metasurfaces
What’s This About?
Airborne sound control is essential for mitigating noise pollution and enhancing acoustic comfort in both public and private spaces. Traditional noise-control techniques, such as absorptive materials and active noise cancellation, often suffer from limited bandwidth and efficiency constraints.
Recent advancements in acoustic metasurfaces provide a physics-driven approach by leveraging engineered, subwavelength structures to precisely manipulate sound waves. Our research focuses on developing tunable acoustic metasurfaces capable of redirecting, absorbing, and filtering airborne sound, offering versatile solutions for various acoustic applications.
Why Does It Matter?
By integrating innovative material design with advanced acoustic control strategies, we aim to:
✔️ Noise Reduction – Mitigating unwanted sound from aircraft engines, automobiles, and impact-induced noise in urban and residential areas.
✔️ Advanced Sound Manipulation – Enabling novel effects such as acoustic cloaking and beam shaping for secure communications and privacy applications.
Our goal is to develop smart, tunable metasurfaces that dynamically adapt to environmental conditions, delivering superior performance compared to conventional noise-control methods.
