Abstract:In this study, it is aimed to protect underwater vehicles against active sonar systems by anechoic metamaterial coating. A mixture of matrix material with close acoustic impedance to water, resistivity to hydrostatic pressure, suitability for the marine environment, and high material loss factor are selected. At low frequencies, the inclusions in different shapes and sizes are added to the matrix material. Since solid inclusions will increase the density considerably, air cavities are preferred as inclusions. … Show more
