Acoustics in aerospace - numerical methods and materials characterization

The webinar entitled "Acoustics in aerospace - numerical methods and materials characterization" organised by AIDAA, the Italian Association of Aeronautics and Astronautics, will be held on 14 - 15 June 2023.

Abstract

The aim of this webinar is to deal with the main criticisms related to acoustic simulation and noisesuppression in the aerospace sector. This objective is achieved by initially introducing and discussing the state-of-the-art methods and technologies that are relevant to this field. Subsequently, the fundamentals of analytical (Transfer Matrix Method) and numerical (Wave Finite Element Method) approaches are illustrated, which constitute powerful and efficient techniques to estimate the absorption and transmission properties of a sound package. Lastly, some innovative acoustic meta-material configurations are presented, based on a periodic pattern of porous unit cells, whose main homogenization models are defined and discussed too. These topics address different applications not only in the aerospace industry, but more generally in transportation (automotive, railway), energy and civil engineering sectors, where both weight and space, as well as vibroacoustic comfort, still remain as critical issues.

Target audience: doctoral students, non-academic professionals, and Master students.
