Sumario: | A tunable dual-band acoustic metamaterial (AM) with nested two-layer split hollow spheres (TLSHSs) is presented here, which was achieved by adjusting the hole diameter and the ratio of the two layers’ volumes. This work comprises theoretical and numerical studies. Based on sound-force analogy (SFA), TLSHSs can be considered equivalent to a model of two spring oscillators in series. The equations of two resonant frequencies were derived, which precisely provided the relation between two resonant frequencies and the hole diameter as well as the ratio of the two layers’ volumes. The analytical formulas and simulation results by the finite element method (FEM) showed that there were two resonant frequencies for the TLSHSs, and their dynamic modulus became negative near the resonant frequencies. As the the diameter of two holes increased, both of the resonant frequencies underwent a blue shift. As the relative volume ratio increased, both of the resonant frequencies underwent a red shift. The calculation and simulation results were in good agreement. This kind of precisely controllable dual-band AM with negative modulus can easily be coupled to other structures with negative mass density, thereby achieving a double-negative AM in an expected frequency range. |
