Abstract: An apparatus is provided that includes a structure. This structure includes a first skin, a second skin and a cellular core connected to the first skin and the second skin. The cellular core includes a cantilevered damper and an internal cavity between the first skin and the second skin. The cantilevered damper projects into the internal cavity. The cantilevered damper includes a plurality of damper masses and a plurality of damper arms interconnecting the plurality of damper masses together.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, the present technology includes devices and systems for removing obstructive material from a blood vessel lumen. For example, the system can comprise a first elongated member, a second elongated member, and a cutting element configured to cut obstructive material at the treatment site. Rotation of the second elongated member relative to the first elongated member, or vice versa, can cause the cutting element to expand away from a longitudinal axis of the second elongated member. The system can further include an expandable positioning element configured to be intravascularly delivered to the treatment site, where the positioning element can be configured to expand into apposition with the vessel wall to position the cutting element closer to the obstructive material than before expansion of the positioning element.

Abstract: An acoustic liner includes a first face sheet, a second face sheet spaced from the first face sheet, and a plurality of sidewalls extending between the first face sheet and the second face sheet. The plurality of sidewalls defines a plurality of cells. Each cell of the plurality of cells defines a cavity between the first face sheet and the second face sheet. A bulk absorber is disposed within at least one cell of the plurality of cells. The bulk absorber further defines the cavity of the at least one cell of the plurality of cells. The first face sheet defines a plurality of apertures extending through a thickness of the first face sheet. Each aperture of the plurality of apertures is aligned with a respective cell of the plurality of cells.

Abstract: An additively manufactured noise attenuation panel for a structure within an aircraft structure includes a plurality of unit cells, each including a central body interconnected via a plurality of tubes extending from the central body. The noise attenuation panel may include an increasing wall thickness in a desired direction. A layers of unit cells may be manufactured in a twisted orientation with respect to an immediately adjacent layer of unit cells. Layers of unit cells may be manufactured in a rounded or bent orientation with respect to a central axis. The noise attenuation panel may further comprise a disk and a blended transition located at the interface between the disk and an interior surface of a unit cell.

Abstract: An engine assembly includes a combustor wall with a first skin, a second skin, a core and a sound attenuation passage. The first skin forms a peripheral boundary of a combustion volume on a first side of the combustor wall. The second skin forms a peripheral boundary of a plenum on a second side of the combustor wall. The core includes a plurality of resonator elements between the first skin and the second skin. A first resonator element includes a first base and a plurality of first protrusions projecting out from the first base. Each first protrusion includes a first bore fluidly coupled with a first cavity within the first base. The sound attenuation passage extends within the core and is fluidly coupled with the combustion volume through an attenuation passage aperture in the first skin. The sound attenuation passage is fluidly decoupled from the plenum by the second skin.
