Abstract
A continuously variable Helmholtz resonator for a vehicle air intake system having a vibratory input to the resonator wall to dynamically adjust the cancellation frequency for time-varying acoustical signals, and at least one of mean resonator volume control, mean resonator neck length control, and mean resonator neck diameter control whereby control of both the dynamic and the mean properties of the resonator provides a wide-tuning spectrum and facilitates canceling of time-varying acoustical signals.
