Abstract

A method and apparatus for attenuating sound. Air, through which acoustic waves are traveling, is received within a core comprised of a plurality of cells. The sound created by the acoustic waves is attenuated using a set of channels through a number of cell interfaces between cells of the plurality of cells by allowing the air to flow between the cells of the plurality of cells through the set of channels.
