Acoustic artificial material is a kind of artificial composite material which can control elastic waves. It has a wide application prospect in the fields of vibration reduction, noise reduction, acoustic stealth, acoustic guidance, acoustic focusing and imaging. Based on numerical simulation, theoretical analysis and machine learning method, the band gap calculation and design of two typical acoustical artificial materials, i.e. coated spherical inclusions and layered phononic crystals, are systematically studied in this paper. The main research results include:Based on the principle of local resonance, an acoustic metamaterial with a coated spherical inclusion is designed to effectively attenuate the pulse wave energy. Based on the transmission coefficient calculation and time-domain simulation, the attenuation performance of metamaterials on harmonic waves is verified, and the method of Fourier transform method for pulse spectrum analysis and band gap design is proved to be feasible. The effects of geometrical and physical parameters of inclusions and viscoelasticity of matrix on the attenuation performance are revealed. It is found that the increase of band gap width can effectively improve the attenuation performance, while the viscoelasticity of matrix material may weaken the attenuation effect.Based on the theoretical solution of the transmission coefficient and band structure of layered phononic crystals, the relationship between the transmission coefficient of layered phononic crystals and the number of layers, the thickness of layers, the sequence and the wavelength is revealed, and the band gap range of the two-component double-layer single cell phononic crystal material is proved. It is theoretically proved that when the thickness of single cell is given, increasing the number of layers will increase the attenuation effect first and then decrease it; when the materials of each layer are given, the inversion of sequence will not affect the transmission coefficient, and the combination of materials with large impedance difference can achieve better attenuation effect on most of frequencies. Based on the theoretical solution of the band structure of the layered phononic crystal, the band gap range of the phononic crystal with double-layer cells when the material is given is revealed. It is proved that the condition of realizing the maximum relative band gap width is when the volume ratio is equal to the wave speed ratio.A new method for inverse design of acoustic artificial materials based on supervised learning and reinforcement learning is developed, which can maximize the band gap width and realize the specified band gap range of acoustic metamaterials and layered phononic crystals. Based on supervised learning, the inverse design of acoustic metamaterials with two-dimensional circular inclusions is realized, which shows the feasibility of using parameters as inputs of neural network and has the advantages of reducing data scale and using previous knowledge. The high-precision prediction of band gap is realized, and the fast inverse design of band gap is realized by traversing the neural network. By applying reinforcement learning method on layered phononic crystals, the design of maximizing the first-order band gap width and the inverse design of specified band gap range is realized. The characteristics of evolution path are analyzed, and the high efficiency of reinforcement learning is proved. The interactive framework of reinforcement learning and mechanical simulation can be easily used in other mechanical design problems.
