Finite Cylindrical Shell

An analytical study on the vibration and acoustic radiation from an axially stiffened cylindrical shell in water is presented. Supposing that the axial stiffeners interact with the cylindrical shell only through radial forces, the reaction forces on the shell from stiffeners can be expressed by additional impedance. The coupled vibration equation of the finite cylindrical shell with axial stiffening is derived; in this equation additional impedance caused by the axial stiffeners is added. As a result, the vibration and sound radiation of the shell are dependent on the mechanical impedance of the shell, the radiation sound impedance, and the additional impedance of the axial stiffeners. Based on the numerical simulation, it is found that the existence of axial stiffeners decreases the sound radiation and surface average velocity, whereas it increases the radiation factor. The characteristics of the acoustic radiation can be understood from the simulation with good results, which show that the presented methodology can be used to study the mechanism of the acoustic radiation of the complicated cylindrical shell and to optimize its design.

A sound–structure interaction model is established to study the vibroacoustic characteristics of a semisubmerged cylindrical shell using the wave propagation approach (WPA). The fluid free surface effect is taken into account by satisfying the sound pressure release condition. Then, the far-field sound pressure is predicted with shell's vibration response using the stationary phase method. Modal coupling effect arises due to the presence of the fluid free surface. New approaches are proposed to handle this problem, i.e., diagonal coupling acoustic radiation model (DCARM) and column coupling acoustic radiation model (CCARM). New approaches are proved to be able to deal with the modal coupling problem efficiently with a good accuracy at a significantly reduced computational cost. Numerical results also indicate that the sound radiation characteristics of a semisubmerged cylindrical shell are quite different from those from the shell fully submerged in fluid. But the far-field sound pressure of a semisubmerged shell fluctuates around that from the shell ideally submerged in fluid. These new approaches can also be used to study the vibroacoustic problems of cylindrical shells partially coupled with fluid.

An analysis based on Lagrange equations was presented for acoustic and vibration characteristics of finite cylindrical shell-circular plate underwater. The boundary conditions and coupling conditions between the shell and plate expressed using springs, the model of finite shell with circular plate was set up. Considering the elastic potential energy in springs and the work due to fluid loading, the vibro-acoustic equations of finite cylinder with circular plate under excitation were established by Lagrange equations. The influences of boundary conditions and coupling conditions to the acoustic and vibration characteristics were researched. The results show that . The results could be used to control the underwater vehicle’s vibration and acoustic radiation.

Laminated Cylindrical Shells

A general method for predicting acoustic radiation from multiple periodic structures is presented and a numerical solution is proposed to find the radial displacement of thick laminated cylindrical shells with sparse cross stiffeners in the wavenumber domain. Although this method aims at the sound radiation from a single stiffened cylindrical shell, it can be easily adapted to analyze the vibrational and sound characteristics of two concentric cylindrical shells or two parallel plates with complicated periodic stiffeners, such as submarine and ship hulls. The sparse cross stiffeners are composed of two sets of parallel rings and one set of longitudinal stringers. The acoustic power of large cylindrical shells above the ring frequency is derived in the wavenumber domain on the basis of the fact that sound power is focused on the acoustic ellipse. It transpires that a great many band gaps of wave propagation in the helical wave spectra of the radial displacement for stiffened cylindrical shells are generated by the rings and stringers. The acoustic power and input power of stiffened antisymmetric laminated cylindrical shells are computed and compared. The acoustic energy conversion efficiency of the cylindrical shells is less than 10%. The axial and circumferential point forces can also produce distinct acoustic power. The radial displacement patterns of the antisymmetric cylindrical shell with fluid loadings are illustrated in the space domain. This study would help to better understand the main mechanism of acoustic radiation from stiffened laminated composite shells, which has not been adequately addressed in its companion paper (Cao et al., 2012, “Acoustic Radiation From Shear Deformable Stiffened Laminated Cylindrical Shells,” J. Sound Vib., 331(3), pp. 651-670).

This paper mainly focuses on the remarkable transient vibration and underwater acoustic radiation when the underwater vehicle changes direction or depth, and a short time Fourier transform signal processing method to evaluate transient vibration and acoustic radiation of steering engine is provided in this paper. Based on the vibration test of the 1:1 experimental scaffold of the steering engine for an underwater vehicle, the transient maximum excitation forces acting at the contact points between steering engine and experimental scaffold are calculated indirectly by the least square method of load identification in frequency domain and the short time Fourier transform signal processing method. The accuracy and feasibility of results are verified. In addition, taking excitation forces as an approximate input, the numerical solution of transient acoustic radiation for a cylindrical shell with ribs of the steering engine room, based on elastic shell theory and fluid–structure interaction theory, is presented. In the simulation, the steering engine room of the underwater vehicle is simplified into a cylindrical shell with two simply supported tips, because a cylindrical shell with ribs is the basic structure-borne used in underwater vehicles. The results show that transient acoustic radiation of the tested steering engine is higher than allowable value, while the evaluation results of another electric steering engine without retarder are suitable.

Correct Implementation

We extend the results of a previous paper to fluids of finite depth. We consider the Hamiltonian theory of waves on the free surface of an incompressible fluid, and derive the canonical transformation that eliminates the leading order of nonlinearity for finite depth. As in the previous paper we propose using the Lie transformation method since it seems to include a nearly correct implementation of short waves interacting with long waves. We show how to use the Eikonal method for slowly varying currents and/or depths in combination with the nonlinear transformation. We note that nonlinear effects are more important in water of finite depth. We note that a nonlinear action conservation law can be derived.
