Analysis of Sound Transmission Loss in Hybrid Mufflers for Automotive Applications
Abstract: An exhaust system's noise level can be reduced with the use of a muffler. There is general recognition that baffled exhaust mufflers reduce noise emissions and increase the loss of sound transmission. The reduction of sound transmission can be further achieved by inserting sound-absorbing materials inside the muffler. Exhaust muffler systems with strategically positioned baffles have been shown to effectively reduce noise emissions, thereby improving acoustic performance. Baffles divert and …

Role of Filler-Polymer Interface on the Thermal Conductivity in Polymer Composites
Abstract: Polymers with high thermal conductivity are the need of modern technologies due to their robustness, cost-effective, and less corrosiveness. However, bare polymers are not good heat-conductors due to their molecular structures, and their non-metallic properties. Therefore, metallic fillers of different shape and size have been used to enhance the thermal conductivity in polymer-composites. However, there has been search of best geometrical fillers which can maximize the thermal conductivity effectively with …
