    The five families of materials studied in this article are :

    • diaphragms ;

    • Helmholtz resonators ;

    • porous materials with rigid walls ;

    • porous materials with deformable walls ;

    • combinations of the above.

    2.1 Diaphragms

    Diaphragms operate according to the damped oscillator principle (mass-spring system) but, for practical reasons, they are made of flexural panels, i.e. large plates capable of vibrating in bending, preferably in their fundamental mode.
