Broad-Band Noise Mitigation in Vibrating Annular Plates by Dynamic Absorbers

Abstract

Steady-state and transient acoustic radiation characteristics of clamped-free annular plate with tuned mass damper (TMD) device is studied. Galerkin’s procedure is employed to obtain the transverse vibration of the annular disk. Based on the Rayleigh integral approach, acoustic pressure radiation is obtained and subsequently the modal sound power and modal radiation efficiency are obtained. A new formulation for the transient acoustic pressure in Laplace domain is presented for the first time in this paper. Durbin’s numerical Laplace transform inversion scheme is employed to obtain the response spectrum. The optimum parameters of vibration absorbers are proposed for suppressing the dynamic vibration and acoustic pressure. A parametric study is carried out and the effects of vibration absorber characteristics are investigated using the analytical procedure. Limiting cases are considered and good agreements with the finite element solution, as well as with those available in the literature, are achieved.

Active Transient Acousto-Structural Response Control of a Smart Cavity-Coupled Circular Plate System

“…For a detailed description of the GA-based controller gain optimization and weighting function selection procedure, the reader is referred to (Hasheminejad, Rabbani, 2015). With the hypothesis of light external fluid (air) loading, the radiated transient acoustic pressure field may be computed by making use of the following form of Rayleigh integral in Laplace domain (Junger, Feit, 1986;Shakeri, Younesian, 2015):…”

“…In order to enhance wheel damping, diverse methods have been proposed so far. We may address to (a) preloaded rings inserted into the wheel [25], (b) mounting damping layers to the wheel [4,26] and carbody [27], and (c) dynamic vibration absorbers [28]. Each method has its own costs and benefits.…”

Sound Radiation Mitigation of Geometrically Nonlinear Plates Subjected to Subsonic Airflow

“…Yang et al [15] presented an analytical study for sound radiation of functionally graded materials (FGM) plate based on the three-dimensional theory of elasticity. Shakeri and Younesian [16] studied the acoustic radiation in the transient and steady-state modes for a clamped-free annular plate with a tuned mass damper (TMD) device. Daneshjou et al [17] proposed an exact solution of three-dimensional elasticity for sound transmission loss through an FG cylinder in presence of subsonic external flow.…”
