Abstract

See full text

A bilayler metamaterial silencer allows substantial fluid through the apparatus, while mitigating the propagation of sound through the apparatus, and while providing a form factor that is significantly more compact than previously-known devices. Moreover, illustrative embodiments allow a designer to specify one or both of the frequency or frequencies at which the apparatus mitigates sound propagation, and/or the bandwidth around the frequency or frequencies at which the apparatus mitigates sound propagation.
