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.

Elastic Responses

Strain growth is a phenomenon observed in the elastic response of containment vessels subjected to internal blast loading. The local dynamic response of a containment vessel may become larger in a later stage than its response in the earlier stage. In order to understand the possible mechanisms of the strain growth phenomenon in a cylindrical vessel, dynamic elastic responses of a finite-length cylindrical shell with different boundary conditions subjected to internal pressure pulse are studied by finite-element simulation using LS-DYNA. It is found that the strain growth in a finite-length cylindrical shell with sliding–sliding boundary conditions is caused by nonlinear modal coupling. Strain growth in a finite-length cylindrical shell with free–free or simply supported boundary conditions is primarily caused by the linear modal superposition, possibly enhanced by the nonlinear modal coupling. The understanding of these strain growth mechanisms can guide the design of cylindrical containment vessels.

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.
