摘要

The absorption properties of a metaporous material made of non-resonant simple shape three-dimensional rigid inclusions (cube, cylinder, sphere, cone, and ring torus) embedded in a rigidly backed rigid-frame porous material are studied. A nearly total absorption can be obtained for a frequency lower than the quarter-wavelength resonance frequency due to the excitation of a trapped mode. To be correctly excited, this mode requires a filling fraction larger in three-dimensions than in two-dimensions for purely convex (cube, cylinder, sphere, and cone) shapes. At long wavelengths compared to the spatial period, a cube is found to be the best purely convex inclusion shape to embed in a cubic unit cell, while the embedment of a sphere or a cone cannot lead to an optimal absorption for some porous material properties and dimensions of the unit cell. At a fixed position of purely convex shape inclusion barycenter, the absorption coefficient only depends on the filling fraction and does not depend on the shape below the Bragg frequency arising from the interaction between the inclusion and its image with respect to the rigid backing. The influence of the incidence angle and of the material properties, namely, the flow resistivity is also shown. The results of the modeling are validated experimentally in the case of cubic and cylindrical inclusions.
