Computational parameter retrieval approach to the dynamic homogenization of a periodic array of rigid rectangular blocks (1803.04717v1)

Published 13 Mar 2018 in physics.app-ph

Abstract: We propose to homogenize a periodic (along one direction) structure, first in order to verify the quasi-static prediction of its response to an acoustic wave arising from mixing theory, then to address the question of what becomes of this prediction at higher frequencies. This homogenization is treated as an inverse (parameter retrieval) problem, i.e., by which we: (1) generate far-field (i.e., specular reflection and transmission coefficients) response data for the given periodic structure, (2) replace (initially by thought) this (inhomgoeneous) structure by a homogeneous (surrogate) layer, (3) compute the response of the surrogate layer response for various trial constitutive properties, (4) search for the global minimum of the discrepancy between the response data of the given structure and the various trial parameter responses (5) attribute the homogenized properties of the surrogate layer for which the minimum of the discrepancy is attained. The result is that: (i) at low frequencies and/or large filling factors, the effective constitutive properties are close to their static equivalents, i.e., the effective mass density is the product of a factor related to the given structure filling factor with the mass density of a generic substructure of the given structure and the effective velocity is equal to the velocity in the said generic substructure, 2) at higher frequencies and/or smaller city filling factors, the effective constitutive properties are dispersive and do not take on a simple mathematical form, with this dispersion compensating for the discordance between the ways the inhomogeneous given structure and the homogeneous surrogate layer respond to the acoustic wave.
