abstract = "Acoustic black holes (ABH) have caught the attention of researchers because of their potential to absorb sound and control vibrations. This study presents an analytical framework that determines reflection coefficients in ABH structures. It focuses on implementing an acoustic black
hole with a power-law tapered profile on beams. Moreover, this research investigates how various geometric shapes affect Damping Loss Factor (DLF) coefficients. This helps identify optimal approaches to optimize ABH structures based on specific requirements. The finite element method and a
topology optimization solver were used to optimize various parameters systematically. The aim is to reduce weight and response, thereby improving the efficiency of ABH designs, especially in low-frequency insulation applications. The results demonstrate that ABH exhibits excellent performance
in suppressing vibrations.",
