An increasing awareness of the negative impact of noise and vibration exposure on our health along with ever tightening ecological and economic demands has led to an intensive search for innovative lightweight noise and vibration solutions. Metamaterials have emerged and shown strong potential to outperform traditional solutions. Although promising, the manufacturing of metamaterials is c…
This proposal combines the efforts of research groups from the University of Sao Paulo, State University of Sao Paulo, University of Campinas, Technological Institute of Aeronautics and a number of international collaborators to investigate periodic structures in the context of phononic materials and elastic/acoustic metamaterials. Phononic materials and elastic/acoustic metamaterials can…
Active control is a potential solution to cope with the steadily increasing requirements for noise reduction in many fields. Cavity noise reduction, as encountered in aircraft cabins and vehicle interiors, are typical examples. More recently, not only noise reduction is pursued, but rather an improvement on the appreciation of the perceived noise by the occupants. The first step towards A…
Periodic structures have been widely used in different engineering applications due to their capacity of vibration attenuation in different frequency bands. Acoustic metamaterials are structures built using such repetitive assemblies of identical elements to explore either Bragg-scattering or internal resonance to control mechanical waves. The design of the metamaterial is done to attenua…
Due to a bigger concern and regulamentation about sound emissions and exposure combined with sustainability and reduced ecological footprints, a trend toward lightweight sound and vibration control was established. The metamaterials are one particular solution that has demonstrated potential to effectively suffice the demands without the mass and volumetric penalties of classical methods.…
The use of periodicity has become an interesting solution for structural noise and vibration reduction in many engineering applications. Acoustic metamaterials are structures built using such repetitive assemblies of identical elements to explore either Bragg-scattering or internal resonance to control mechanical waves. They present frequency bands in which waves do not freely propagate, …
Drones have become an instrument of great relevance, due to the fact that they are versatile equipment with a wide range of applications, such as in filming, in precision agriculture, aircraft maintenance, surveying and even in exploration research. With them, it becomes possible to reach places that would not be easily accessed by other means, such as helicopters or airplanes, as it is a…
Metamaterials have recently emerged as means for exploring phenomenapreviously related to electromagnetic wave propagation in systems subject to mechanicalwaves (structural and/or acoustic) waves. Among these phenomena, the Bragg dispersionand local resonance phenomena are highlighted, both found in periodic structures, whichpromote energy attenuation in certain frequency bands - the so-c…
This PhD project aims to develop active noise and sound quality control systems for hybrid and electric cars. This new paradigm in powertrains for vehicles, poses new challenges for designing and analyzing noise and vibration. Novel acoustic emissions perceived at the passenger's cavity are due to new devices required by these kind of vehicles, e. g. frequency inverters and range extender…

New targets of the automotive industry in reducing fuel consumption and environmental impact, while maintaining or even improving vehicle's performance, force the companies to migrate to new propulsion paradigms. The use of lightweight materials for building structural systems in conjunction with hybrid and/or electric propulsion systems may have a negative impact on the perception of the…
