Summary:As an important tool for monitoring the marine environment, safeguarding maritime rights and interests and building a smart ocean, underwater equipment has developed rapidly in recent years. Due to the problems of seawater corrosion, excessive deep-sea static pressure and noise interference in the marine environment and economy, the applicability of manufacturing materials must be considered at the beginning of the design of underwater equipment. Piezoelectric metamaterial is widely used in underwater equipment instead of traditional materials because the traditional materials can not meet the application requirements. In this paper, according to the application range of piezoelectric metamaterials in underwater equipment, the current application of piezoelectric metamaterials is reviewed from the aspects of sound insulation and energy conversion. On this basis, the future development prospect of piezoelectric metamaterials in underwater equipment is introduced.
