Advances In Underwater Acoustics, Structural Acoustics, And Computational Methodologies (In 4 Volumes)

This set of volumes encompasses the study of acoustics to diverse environments ranging from underwater and marine environments, to structural and civil engineering, computational models and aerospace engineering. Each volume comprises peer-reviewed publications in the related field of acoustics from the past decade, arranged such as to review the existing literature, examine new methodologies and then explore novel applications of pioneering acoustic principles. With contributions by eminent acoustics researchers, this set holds key insights for fellow acoustics researchers and engineers of any field impacted by acoustic phenomena.Volume 1's review chapters summarise theories like geoacoustic inversion as well as criticism of the Biot theory of propagation in fluid-saturated porous solids, while the new methodologies shown range from an efficient and stable coupled-mode solution to a cell-based smoothed radial point interpolation method. The book concludes with promising applications like experimental evidence of horizontal refraction and bottom attenuation coefficient inversion.Volume 2 reviews topics including radiation boundary conditions for the Helmholtz equation, and analytical interpretation of the early literature on the theory of vibrations. The methodologies range from coupled boundary element and energy flow method as well as sound radiation of a line source. The work concludes with promising applications like Lamb Waves in a poroelastic plate and experimental validations of reconstructed excitation forces acting inside a solid enclosure.Volume 3 provides summaries of theories including the benchmark study on eigenfrequencies of fluid-loaded structures, and the Burton and Miller method, while the new methodologies presented range from a coupled boundary element and energy flow method, to an efficient approach to the simulation of acoustic radiation. The volume concludes with promising applications like a comparison of transient infinite elements and transient Kirchhoff integral methods, as well as a fast multi-frequency iterative acoustic boundary element method.Volume 4 depicts the context of conventional methodologies including short-wave components and Galbrun's equation, while its new methodologies range from radiation and outflow boundary conditions for direct computation of acoustic and flow disturbances to the effect of airfoil shape on trailing edge noise. The collection concludes with promising applications like helicopter noise predictions and conservative source interpolation methods for aeroacoustics.

Senior level/graduate level text/reference presenting state-of-the- art numerical techniques to solve the wave equation in heterogeneous fluid-solid media. Numerical models have become standard research tools in acoustic laboratories, and thus computational acoustics is becoming an increasingly important branch of ocean acoustic science. The first edition of this successful book, written by the recognized leaders of the field, was the first to present a comprehensive and modern introduction to computational ocean acoustics accessible to students. This revision, with 100 additional pages, completely updates the material in the first edition and includes new models based on current research. It includes problems and solutions in every chapter, making the book more useful in teaching (the first edition had a separate solutions manual). The book is intended for graduate and advanced undergraduate students of acoustics, geology and geophysics, applied mathematics, ocean engineering or as a reference in computational methods courses, as well as professionals in these fields, particularly those working in government (especially Navy) and industry labs engaged in the development or use of propagating models.

Nowadays, numerical computation has become one of the most vigorous tools for scientists, researchers and professional engineers, following the enormous progress made during the last decades in computing technology, in terms of both computer hardware and software development. Although this has led to tremendous achievements in computer-based structural engineering, the increasing necessity of solving complex problems in engineering requires the development of new ideas and innovative methods for providing accurate numerical solutions in affordable computing times. This collection aims at providing a forum for the presentation and discussion of state-of-the-art innovative developments, concepts, methodologies and approaches in scientific computation applied to structural engineering. It involves a wide coverage of timely issues on computational structural engineering with a broad range of both research and advanced practical applications. This Research Topic encompasses, but is not restricted to, the following scientific areas: modeling in structural engineering; finite element methods; boundary element methods; static and dynamic analysis of structures; structural stability; structural mechanics; meshless methods; smart structures and systems; fire engineering; blast engineering; structural reliability; structural health monitoring and control; optimization; and composite materials, with application to engineering structures.
