Influence of compaction pressure on the mechanical and acoustic properties of compacted earth blocks: An inverse multi-parameter acoustic problem

Résumé

In this work we focus on the study of the acoustic and mechanical behavior of compressed earth blocks (CEBs). The aim was to study the influence of compaction pressure on the compressive strength and intrinsic acoustic parameters influencing sound absorption of these materials (porosity, tortuosity, airflow resistivity, viscous characteristic length). Specimens made by varying the applied compaction pressure and therefore having various bulk densities were studied. Low bulk density CEBs where stabilized by adding 15% cement. The acoustic absorption coefficients of the different specimens were determined experimentally employing data obtained using the Kundt tube. The intrinsic acoustic parameters were identified by minimizing the discrepancies between the experimentally measured absorption coefficient (α) and the theoretical one modeling the CEBs using the equivalent fluid model. The results showed that the acoustic and mechanical behavior of CEBs were strongly influenced by the applied compaction pressure including, inter alia, the bulk density of the specimen and the added cement used as stabilizer.
