Abstract Engineers have started to develop ways to decrease noise radiation. Structural-acoustic design sensitivity analysis can provide information on how changes in design variable affect the radiated acoustic performance. As such, it is an important step in the structural-acoustic design and in optimization processes. For thin structures immersed in water, a full interaction between the structural domain and the fluid domain needs to be taken into account. In this work, the finite element method is used to model the structure parts and the boundary element method is applied to the exterior acoustic problem. The formula of More >
