On acoustic propagation in three-dimensional rectangular ducts with flexible walls and porous linings.

چکیده
The focus of this article is toward the development of hybrid analytic-numerical mode-matching methods for model problems involving three-dimensional ducts of rectangular cross-section and with flexible walls. Such methods require first closed form analytic expressions for the natural fluid-structure coupled waveforms that propagate in each duct section and second the corresponding orthogonality relations. It is demonstrated how recent theory [Lawrie, Proc. R. Soc. London, Ser. A 465, 2347-2367 (2009)] may be extended to a wide class of three-dimensional ducts, for example, those with a flexible wall and a porous lining (modeled as an equivalent fluid) or those with a flexible internal structure, such as a membrane (the "drum-like" silencer). Two equivalent expressions for the eigenmodes of a given duct can be formulated. For the ducts considered herein, the first ansatz is dependent on the eigenvalues/eigenfunctions appropriate for wave propagation in the corresponding two-dimensional flexible-walled duct, whereas the second takes the form of a Fourier series. The latter offers two advantages: no "root-finding" is involved and the method is appropriate for ducts in which the flexible wall is orthotropic. The first ansatz, however, provides important information about the orthogonality properties of the three-dimensional eigenmodes.

Acoustic propagation in 3-D, rectangular ducts with flexible walls
In this article some analytic expressions for acoustic propagation in 3-D ducts of rectangular cross-section and with flexible walls are explored. Consideration is first given to the propagation of sound in an unlined 3-D duct formed by three rigid walls and closed by a thin elastic plate. An exact closed form expression for the fluid-structure coupled waves is presented. The effect of incorpor...

Recent improvements in fiber properties combined with their broadband acoustic dissipation characteristics make such materials potentially desirable for implementation in silencers. The acoustic modelling of simple silencer geometries, such as circular or rectangular cross-sections, has been established and classified depending on the assumption of locallyor bulk-reacting lining. Morse [1] used...

The permeability and tortuosity of pore-scale two and three-dimensional random porous media were calculated using the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Effects of geometrical parameters of medium on permeability and tortuosity were investigated as well. Two major models of random porous media were reconstructed by computerized tomography method: Randomly distributed rectangular obstacles in a uni...

The propagation of surface waves in a fluid- saturated porous isotropic layer over a semi-infinite homogeneous elastic medium with an irregularity for free and rigid interfaces have been studied. The rectangular irregularity has been taken in the half-space. The dispersion equation for Love waves is derived by simple mathematical techniques followed by Fourier transformations. It can be seen t...
