Abstract
Membrane-type acoustic metamaterials (MAMMs) have been studied for more than a decade.
It has been disclosed to be efficient to attenuate low pitched noise by ultra-thin materials, which
seems to turn against the mass-density law in nature. By various designs of the membrane resonators,
low transmission and perfect absorption have already been achieved by different experiments.
When the symmetry of membrane surface is broken, additional eigenmodes and anti-eigenmodes
will be generated. Off-centred decorated membrane resonator (ODMR) is an ideal
candidate for studying the manipulation of those new modes. The specific motions of the decoration
are critical to discover the control factors of mode manipulation. Besides, V-shape impedance

Membrane-type acoustic metamaterials (MAMMs) have been studied for more than a decade.

When the symmetry of membrane surface is broken, additional eigenmodes and anti-eigenmodes
will be generated. Off-centred decorated membrane resonator (ODMR) is an ideal
candidate for studying the manipulation of those new modes. The specific motions of the decoration
are critical to discover the control factors of mode manipulation. Besides, V-shape impedance
tube is applied to examine the effects of tilted incident angle to the sample surface. Power dependent
properties in membrane oscillator are also observed by varying input signals in V-shape tube.
Non-linearity in membrane-type metamaterials is then revealed to be responsible for power dependent
effects. The non-linearity in membrane resonators not only leads to different transmission
coefficients, but also causes frequency-shifting among spectra. Therefore, composite metamaterials
are designed to produce asymmetry in transmission. Thanks to the power dependent effects,
asymmetric transmission takes place in dual-layer membrane resonators.
