Tortuosity, viscous characteristic length and thermal characteristic length are three important parameters for estimating the acoustic performance of porous materials, and it is usually measured by ultrasonic measurement technology, which is costly. In this paper, a method for identifying the tortuosity, viscous characteristic length and thermal characteristic length for the porous fiber materials mixed with kapok fiber and two kinds of other fiber materials is proposed. The tortuosity is calculated by using the porosity and high-frequency normal sound absorption coefficient of porous materials. According to the normal sound absorption coefficient curve of porous materials under plane wave incidence, viscous characteristic length and thermal characteristic length are identified through the Johnson-Champoux-Allard-Lafarge (JCAL) model and genetic algorithm by using the measured parameters, the calculated tortuosity and static thermal permeability.

As an important vibration damping element in automobile industries, the vibration transmitted from the engine to the frame can be reduced effectively because of rubber mount. The influence of preload on the static characteristics of rubber mount and the constitutive parameters identification of Mooney-Rivlin model under preload were studied. Firstly, a test rig for stiffness measurement of rubber mount under preload was designed and the influence of preload on the force versus displacement of mount was studied. Then, the model for estimating force versus displacement of rubber mount was established. The response surface model for parameters identification was established. And the identification method for estimating parameters of Mooney-Rivlin model of rubber mount was proposed with the crow search algorithm. Taking the rubber mount as the research object and taking the parameters of Mooney-Rivlin model as the variables.
