Abstract In practical vibro-acoustic problems, the external excitation normally contains a certain frequency band structure [1]. Therefore, it is needed to perform optimization under frequency band analysis. For sound radiation problems caused by structural vibration, a topology optimization method for structural materials is proposed based on the acoustic-vibration coupling analysis [2-6] and the frequency-band matrix interpolation method [7,8]. By combining the advantages of FEM and BEM in structural and acoustic field analysis, the accurate solution of the acoustic-vibration coupling problem is achieved. The structural material interpolation model is established using the solid isotropic material with penalization… More >

Abstract An isogeometric coupling algorithm based on the finite element method and the boundary element method (IGA-FEM/BEM) is proposed for the simulation of acoustic fluid-structure interaction and structuralacoustic topology optimization using the direct differentiation method. The geometries are constructed from triangular control meshes through Loop subdivision scheme. The effect of sound-absorbing materials on the acoustic response is characterized by acoustic impedance boundary conditions. The optimization problem is formulated in the framework of Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization methods and the sound absorption coefficients on elements are selected as design variables. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate More >

Abstract Acoustic wave propagation has been the subject of many studies in engineering and physics. Researchers have shown an increased interest in recent years in the acoustic scattering of periodic systems, such as phononic crystals and metamaterials [1]. These artificial periodic systems possess some particular acoustic characteristics including noise control, waveguides and negative refraction, which manifest excellent potential applicability in acoustic engineering. Based on the isogeometric acoustic boundary element method (BEM) [2], an efficient shape optimization approach is proposed in this research for threedimensional doubly-periodic multi-layered systems. The interfaces between different acoustic mediums are infinite doubly… More >
