Popis: In this research project, Finite Element Numerical Modeling Method is used to compute the low frequency acoustical insertion losses of barriers with different edge shapes. Rectangular, Round Edge and Couple Round Edge barriers are included. The coupled round edge barrier is a hollowed round edge barrier with a slit on the round edge and a tube with a slit placed at the center of the hollow space of the round edge. The result shows that the coupled round edge barrier can produce a higher insertion loss on a specific range of low frequency noise in shadow zone. The shadow zone is also enlarged at the same time. The performance of the barrier is improved by the slit on the coupled round edge barrier under the dual resonator effect.
