Abstract

In today’s modern society, an emerging field that has garnered notable attention pertains to the management of sound. Effective control measures are needed because of the increase in noise pollution from urbanization and industrial growth. Effectively regulating the level of noise across all areas of engineering is imperative. The development of acoustic materials with exceptional absorption efficiency is a frontier area of study for acousticians and architects alike in the acoustic industry. Although the limited working bandwidth of acoustic metamaterials is a major issue limiting its application, combining meta-units that interact at various frequencies alongside multi-layer conventional solutions can deliver superior sound insulation in buildings. The review put forwards acoustic metamaterials, specifically emphasizing superior sound absorption and transmission/insertion loss as critical properties for effective building sound insulation. The paper reveals a variety of acoustic materials that can be adopted to complement conventional sound insulation approaches for acoustic efficient building design.
