Experimental and Theoretical Analysis of Sound Absorption Properties of Finely Perforated Wooden Panels.

ABSTRACT: Perforated wooden panels are typically utilized as a resonant sound absorbing material in indoor noise control. In this paper, the absorption properties of wooden panels perforated with tiny holes of 1-3 mm diameter were studied both experimentally and theoretically. The Maa-MPP (micro perforated panels) model and the Maa-Flex model were applied to predict the absorption regularities of finely perforated wooden panels. A relative impedance comparison and full-factorial experiments were carried out to verify the feasibility of the theoretical models. The results showed that the Maa-Flex model obtained good agreement with measured results. Control experiments and measurements of dynamic mechanical properties were carried out to investigate the influence of the wood characteristics. In this study, absorption properties were enhanced by sound-induced vibration. The relationship between the dynamic mechanical properties and the panel mass-spring vibration absorption was revealed. While the absorption effects of wood porous structure were not found, they were demonstrated theoretically by using acoustic wave propagation in a simplified circular pipe with a suddenly changed cross-section model. This work provides experimental and theoretical guidance for perforation parameter design.

Project description:Mn K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) was used to gain insights into the geometric and electronic structures of [Mn(II)(Cl)2(Me2EBC)], [Mn(IV)(OH)2(Me2EBC)](2+), and [Mn(IV)(O)(OH)(Me2EBC)](+), which are all supported by the tetradentate, macrocyclic Me2EBC ligand (Me2EBC = 4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazabicyclo[6.6.2]hexadecane). Analysis of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data for [Mn(IV)(O)(OH)(Me2EBC)](+) revealed Mn-O scatterers at 1.71 and 1.84 Å and Mn-N scatterers at 2.11 Å, providing the first unambiguous support for the formulation of this species as an oxohydroxomanganese(IV) adduct. EXAFS-determined structural parameters for [Mn(II)(Cl)2(Me2EBC)] and [Mn(IV)(OH)2(Me2EBC)](2+) are consistent with previously reported crystal structures. The Mn pre-edge energies and intensities of these complexes were examined within the context of data for other oxo- and hydroxomanganese(IV) adducts, and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) computations were used to predict pre-edge properties for all compounds considered. This combined experimental and computational analysis revealed a correlation between the Mn-O(H) distances and pre-edge peak areas of Mn(IV)?O and Mn(IV)-OH complexes, but this trend was strongly modulated by the Mn(IV) coordination geometry. Mn 3d-4p mixing, which primarily accounts for the pre-edge intensities, is not solely a function of the Mn-O(H) bond length; the coordination geometry also has a large effect on the distribution of pre-edge intensity. For tetragonal Mn(IV)?O centers, more than 90% of the pre-edge intensity comes from excitations to the Mn?O ?* MO. Trigonal bipyramidal oxomanganese(IV) centers likewise feature excitations to the Mn?O ?* molecular orbital (MO) but also show intense transitions to 3dx(2)-y(2) and 3dxy MOs because of enhanced 3d-4px,y mixing. This gives rise to a broader pre-edge feature for trigonal Mn(IV)?O adducts. These results underscore the importance of reporting experimental pre-edge areas rather than peak heights. Finally, the TD-DFT method was applied to understand the pre-edge properties of a recently reported S = 1 Mn(V)?O adduct; these findings are discussed within the context of previous examinations of oxomanganese(V) complexes.
