Latest ArticlesIn order to study the influence of sound absorption factors on automobile headliner, impedance tube is used to test the sound absorption characteristics of automotive headliner materials based on the transfer function method; the flow resistance of the headliner is tested based on the direct current method, to analyze the effects of production process, fabric, PU, glue and flow resistance on the sound absorption of the headliner. The results show that the production process, fabric layer and PU are the main factors affecting the sound absorption factors on the headliner. The sound absorption coefficient of the two-step production process is increased by 0.1~0.45 in the frequency range above 1 000 Hz; the sound absorption coefficient of knitted fabric is higher than non-woven fabric by 0.05~0.29 in the whole frequency range. Above the 1 000 Hz frequency, when the thickness or density of PU is increased, the sound absorption coefficient is increased by 0.02~0.43, and the peak of sound absorption is close to 1. The average sound absorption coefficient increases with the flow resistance. Reasonable selection of headliner with high flow resistance can effectively increase the resistance of sound wave propagating in the material, which is conducive to rapid attenuation of sound energy and improvement of sound absorption effect.

This article proposes a method for calibrating and verifying interlayer parameters related to delamination in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) laminates, as well as establishing a failure model based on *MAT_58. In terms of interlayer parameter calibration, the critical shear strain potential difference under interlayer failure is mainly extracted from the out of plane shear strain and normal strain cloud map of the short beam shear experiment to calculate the interlayer shear strength of composite materials. Furthermore, drop hammer impact experiments are conducted on the materials at 10 J and 200 J energy levels, as well as simulations of laminated shells and refined mesh sizes, to verify the effectiveness and modeling practicality of interlayer parameters. The results showed that the P16M2 model had a threshold load error of 5.09% and a peak force error of 8.99%, proving the effectiveness of interlayer parameters. Furthermore, based on the performance of each model in simulation accuracy and computational cost, increasing the number of layers of laminated shells is more effective than refining mesh sizes.
