Prediction of the vibro-acoustic response of a structure-liner-fluid system based on a patch transfer function approach and direct experimental subsystem characterisation

Abstract

The vibro-acoustic response of a structure-liner-fluid system is predicted by application of a patch transfer function (PTF) coupling scheme. In contrast to existing numerical approaches, PTF matrices of structure and liner are determined by a direct experimental approach, avoiding the requirement of material parameters. Emphasis is placed on poroelastic lining materials. The method accounts for surface input and nextneighbour transfer terms and for cross and cross-transfer terms through the specimen. Shear stresses and transfer terms to further patches on the liner are neglected. A single test-rig characterisation procedure for layered poroelastic media is proposed. The specimen is considered as a single component -no separation of layers is performed. For this reason the characterisation procedure can serve as a complement to existing methods if separation of layers is not possible and as a tool for validation of more detailed material models. Problem specific boundary conditions for skeleton and fluid, which may cause non-reciprocal cross terms, are dealt with by the procedure. Methods of measurement for the assessment of PTF matrices are presented and their accuracy and limitations are discussed. An air gap correction method for surface impedance measurements is presented.

MIMO LS-SVR-Based Multi-Point Vibration Response Prediction in the Frequency Domain

“…In the linear model, the predicted response Ŝyy_ums (ω) can be expressed as Equation (6), and the prediction model can be obtained by solving W(ω).…”

“…Because they solve the ordinary differential or partial differential vibration equation, equation deduction and theoretical analytical solution methods [6,7] are only adapted to simple continuum structures (e.g., beam, plate and shell) and are powerless for complex structures.…”

Considerations for mass-spring porous absorber characterization approaches based on finite element modelling

“…Generally, the values of elastic parameters can be estimated by conducting dynamic experiments on springmass systems [15]. In laboratory conditions such systems get either excited with a shaker or with a loudspeaker and frequency response functions are measured by dividing the input signal on the bottom porous liner surface by the output signal on the upper surface of the liner [16,17]. However, as simple as the concept of the measurement setup might seem, it poses a number of difficulties for precise parameter definitions.…”

Multivariant linear regression model based response prediction in situation of unknown uncorrelated multiple sources load

“…In frequency domain, there are two common methods to predict response: one is finite element method and another is transfer function based method. And the usage of transfer function and load to predict response is widely used [1,2]. Wu Z.…”
