  1. 6. Modelling strategies for thin imperfect interfaces and layers

    Author : Mathieu Gaborit; Peter Göransson; Olivier Dazel; Lucie Rouleau; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; uncertainties; thin layers; numerical methods; simplified models; poroelastic materials; incertitudes; couches fines; méthodes numeriques; modèles simplifiés; matériaux poroélastiques; osäkerheter; tunna lager; numeriska metoder; förenklade modeller; poroelastiska medier; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : The global trend towards quieter environments has been one of the key topics of acoustics research for years. The recent tightening of the regulations on noise exposure as well as the many reports on the impact of noise on human health confirm this situation and stress ever more the need for innovative mitigation strategies.

  2. 7. Models of porous, elastic and rigid materials in moving fluids

    Author : Ugis Lacis; Shervin Bagheri; Fredrik Lundell; Lakshminarayanan Mahadevan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid-structure-interaction; flow control; passive appendages; homogenization; poroelastic coatings; separated flows; surface-fluid interface; fluid-struktur-interaktion; flödeskontroll; passiva utväxter; homogenisering; ytbeläggning; separerade strömning; ytbeläggning-strömning gränssnitt; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : Tails, fins, scales, and surface coatings are used by organisms for various tasks, including locomotion. Since millions of years of evolution have passed, we expect that the design of surface structures is optimal for the tasks of the organism. These structures serve as an inspiration in this thesis to identify new mechanisms for flow control. READ MORE

  3. 8. Modelling of thin and imperfect interfaces : Tools and preliminary study

    Author : Mathieu Gaborit; Peter Göransson; Olivier Dazel; Émeline Sadoulet-Reboul; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thin layers; numerical methods; FEM; poroelastic materials; couches fines; méthodes numériques; MEF; matériaux po- roélastiques; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : For quite some time, the strive for more efficient acoustic absorbers keepsincreasing, driven by a number of psycho-physiological studies on health re-lated dangers of noise exposure. As the global wealth increases and with itthe global expectation of quieter living and working environments, manifestedin both politics and research, an important market for sound absorbing andnoise control systems develops in all industrialised countries.

  4. 9. On the ECO2 multifunctional design paradigm and tools for acoustic tailoring

    Author : Juan Pablo Parra Martinez; Peter Göransson; Olivier Dazel; Jacques Cuenca; Per Wennhage; Franck Sgard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vehicle design; planned obsolescence; anisotropy; porous materials; sound absorbing materials; acoustic modelling; power balance; energy assessment; dissipated power.; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : Nowadays vehicle design paradigm influences not only the effectiveness of the different means of transport, but also the environment and economy in a critical way. The assessment of the consequences that design choices have on society at large are necessary to understand the limits of the methods and techniques currently employed. READ MORE

  5. 10. Wave Modelling Techniques for Medium and High Frequency Vibroacoustic Analysis Including Porous Materials

    Author : Hao Liu; Svante Finnveden; Ines Lopez Arteaga; Mohamed Ichchou; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Numerical methods based on wave modelling are explored for the vibroacoustic analysis of wave propagation, sound transmission and interior noise in vehicles and buildings at medium and high frequencies. The presence of sound absorbing porous materials in practical engineering structures is also considered. READ MORE
