Parametric analysis of sound transmission loss in a rectangular duct attached with resonator silencer

Noise is an existing problem that exist in the environments produced from vibrating sources. In general, the common solutions for noise control are: (1) redesigning the system the system for instance increasing wall thickness or stiffening structures, and (2) adding additional damping in acous...
