ABSTRACTIn engineering applications, it is pretty often to have domain heat source involved inside. This article proposes an approach using the boundary element method to study thermal stresses in 3D anisotropic solids when internal domain heat source is involved. As has been well noticed, thermal effect will give rise to a volume integral, where its direct evaluation will need domain discretization. This shall definitely destroy the most distinctive notion of the boundary element method that only boundary discretization is required. The present work presents an analytical transformation of the volume integral in the boundary integral equation due to the presence of internal volume heat source. For simplicity, distribution of the heat source is modeled by a quadratic function. When needed, the formulations can be further extended to treat higher-ordered volume heat sources. Indeed, the present work has completely restored the boundary discretization feature of the boundary element method for treating 3D anisotropic thermoelasticity involving volume heat source.

Abstract Road traffic noise needs to be reduced, because traffic volume is increasing every year. The noise generated from a tire is becoming one of the dominant sources in the total traffic noise because the engine noise is constantly being reduced by the vehicle manufacturers. Although the acoustic intensity measurement technology has been enhanced by the recent developments in digital measurement techniques, repetitive measurements are necessary to find effective ways for noise control. Hence, a simulation method to predict generated noise is required to replace the time-consuming experiments. The boundary element method (BEM) is applied to predict the acoustic radiation caused by the vibration of a tire sidewall and a tire noise prediction system is developed. The BEM requires the geometry and the modal characteristics of a tire which are provided by an experiment or the finite element method (FEM). Since the finite element procedure is applied to the prediction of modal characteristics in a tire noise prediction system, the acoustic pressure can be predicted without any measurements. Furthermore, the acoustic contribution analysis obtained from the post-processing of the predicted results is very helpful to know where and how the design change affects the acoustic radiation. The predictability of this system is verified by measurements and the acoustic contribution analysis is applied to tire noise control.
