    Author : Christopher John Cameron; Dan Zenkert; Peter Göransson; Per Wennhage; Per-Olof Sturesson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sandwich panels; mutifunctional; structural acoustic interaction; NVH; vehicle acoustics; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : Over the past century, the automobile has become an integral part of modern industrializedsociety. Consumer demands, regulatory legislation, and the corporate need togenerate a profit, have been the most influential factors in driving forward the evolutionof the automobile. READ MORE

  2. 2. 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

  3. 3. Micro-structural based acoustic modelling of anisotropic open cell materials

    Author : Eva Lundberg; Huina Mao; Bradley Semeniuk; Peter Göransson; Mathieu Gaborit; Romain Rumpler; Peter Göransson; Elke Deckers; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sound absorption; vehicle; anisotropic; foam; micro-structure; resource efficient; transfer matrix method; ljudabsorption; anisotrop; skum; mikrostruktur; TMM; fordon; resurseffektiv; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : A method for the calculation of the acoustic performance of open-cell foammaterials is discussed. From a known micro-structural geometry and theconstituent material, the relevant acoustic properties are computed using apreviously published analytical method for the calculation of the dynamicdrag impedance and a previously published method for the calculation of theelastic moduli.

  4. 4. Experimental Determination of Aeracoustic Sources in Low Mach Number Internal Flows

    Author : Andreas Holmberg; Hans Bodén; Lars Enghardt; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aeracoustics; ducts; N-ports; scattering matrix; wave decomposition; source determination; over-determination; flow noise; fluid-acoustic interaction; fluid-structure-acoustic interaction; wave number; T-junction; power balance; grazing-bias flow; Acoustics; Akustik; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the in-duct experimental methods for determining aeroacoustic N-ports of in-duct elements are discussed and improved. The scattering matrix determination methods and the related wave decomposition methods are evaluated from measurements in an empty duct carrying a mean flow. READ MORE

    Abstract : Acoustic fatigue can occur in structural elements of an aircraft exposed to very high sound pressures. To deal with acoustic fatigue, mainly empirical methods have been applied and often late in the design phase. Current design guidelines have three main limitations. First, they do not say anything about the load intensities. READ MORE
