Validity of the limp model for porous materials: A criterion based on the Biot theory
Résumé
The validity of using the limp model for porous materials is addressed in this paper. The limp model is derived from the poroelastic Biot model assuming that the frame has no bulk stiffness. Being an equivalent fluid model accounting for the motion of the frame, it has fewer limitations than the usual equivalent fluid model assuming a rigid frame. A criterion is proposed to identify the porous materials for which the limp model can be used. It relies on a new parameter, the Frame Stiffness Influence ($FSI$) based on porous material properties. The critical values of $FSI$ under which the limp model can be used, are determined using a $1D$ analytical modeling for two boundary sets: absorption of a porous layer backed by a rigid wall and radiation of a vibrating plate covered by a porous layer. Compared with other criteria, the criterion associated with $FSI$ provides information in a wider frequency range and can be used for configurations which include vibrating plates.
