Static airflow resistivity []
Static airflow resistivity governs the low-frequency viscous
effects in open-cell porous media, where the viscous skin
depth is of the order of magnitude of the characteristic size of
the cells.
It is defined as the limit, when flow tends to zero, of the
quotient of the air pressure difference across a specimen
divided by its thickness and the velocity of airflow through it.

Tortuosity []
Tortuosity accounts for the apparent
increase in the fluid density when the
fluid saturates a porous structure.
It can be seen as the effective length
of the path follows by acoustical wave
through the material.

38
But rules must be observed
For inverse (iterative or direct) characterizations,
impedance tube measurements must verify following tests :
1. Sample is saturated by air at rest.
2. Linear acoustics
3. The resistivity and open porosity of the sample are known.
4. Acoustical response mostly follows that of an equivalent fluid.
5. All the physics is captured by the absorption curves.
6. Sample is homogeneous (~symmetric).
7. Boundary conditions do not influence tube measurements.

Quality of test sample
40
Is all the physics captured in the absorption curves?
Large number of
open-cell
porous media follow
this typical behavior
Exception: high
resistivity materials,
where viscous length
dominate viscous
forces over resistivity
Zones I + II are necessary
Zone III is highly recommended
for accurate estimations of the parameters

Elastic properties [E,,]
Young’s modulus [Pa], Poisson’s ratio and damping loss
factor follow the same definitions as for elastic materials.
Porous materials are generally not isotropic.
Most of the time, only the normal properties (under
tension or compression) are used.

Use of the Transfer Matrix Method
Calculation of vibroacoustic indicators under various excitations:
• Impedance / Absorption
• Transmission Loss
• Added damping
• Radiation efficiency
• Acoustic/Vibration transmissibility
•…
Can also be used within SEA framework to handle complicated geometries and
systems
Principle: assumes the sound package planar
and uses TMM to correct (i) non-resonant
path; (ii) radiation efficiency; (iii) absorption
and (iv) added damping

Double porosity materials
 Allows for materials with two scales of porosity (e.g. perforated
foams).
65
Patch-work type materials
 Allows for non-homogenous materials (patch-works) and
parallel assemblies using an advanced Parallel/Series
implementation of the TMM.

Conclusion
 Use of Biot based models for porous material is nowadays
widely in industry
 Many Direct and iterative (Indirect) methods exist for the
characterization of the 9 material properties
 Fine characterization depends on many factors:
 Quality of specimens (geometry, homogeneity, …)
 Control of edge effects
 Expertise of experimenter
Perspectives: Need for standards for full poroelastic
characterization:
 Impedance, absorption measurement (Ok but not complete)
 Resistivity (Ok)
 The rest of the properties (standards & QA needed)
69
Conclusion
 TMM based models are Quick & accurate enough to be used for
design and what if questions…
 Comparison with Tests & FE simulations show that they are
even acceptable for large curved panel (aerospace applications;
low ring frequency) and various types of excitations
Perspectives:
• More studies with various panel constructions, radius of
curvatures & excitations (DAF & TBL)
• Efficient combination with FE models  hybrid models (see
my keynote presentations at ISNVH14)
• Accounting for input parameters variance, anisotropy and
mounting conditions
