Introduction

This is an introduction to acoustics and vibration phenomena in the COMSOL Multiphysics environment including structural-acoustics couplings and piezoelectricity. We will demonstrate simulations of both elastic and fluid waves: how a vibrating structure induces pressure waves in a surrounding fluid and also demonstrate how the surrounding fluid acts as an impedance load on the vibrating structure and how it changes its frequency characteristics. Modal, frequency-response, and transient simulations are covered. The add-on Modules used in this course are: the Acoustics Module, the Structural Mechanics Module, and the MEMS Module

The course contents include:

  • Sound propagation through mufflers and similar devices
  • Acoustic waves generated by elastic vibrations
  • Piezo-acoustic devices
  • Vibration analysis of mechanical components
  • Elasto-acoustics and non-destructive testing (NDT)
  • Perfectly Matched Layers (PMLs) for optimal modeling of infinite domains

Suggested Background

This course assumes some familiarity with the basic concepts of acoustics and structural dynamics. We strongly recommend that those new to COMSOL Multiphysics take the COMSOL Multiphysics Intensive Training course prior to attending this class.

Cancellation Policy

Please note that your seat in the course can not be confirmed until payment or a formal purchase order have been received.

Instructor-led training tuition is fully refundable if we receive written notification (via mail or e-mail) of cancellation on or before seven business days prior to the class. Cancellations made less than seven business days prior to class will be charged 25 percent of the course tuition fee. If you fail to show up to class without written notice, you will be charged the full tuition. You may send a substitute in your place to avoid a fee.

If a training course cannot take place as scheduled due to circumstances beyond COMSOL's control, we will issue a full refund for the amount that you have already paid.
