The Effect of Resistance on Rocket Injector Acoustics

C. J. Morgan [1], S. R. Fischbach [1],
[1] Jacobs ESSSA Group, NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, AL, USA

This study evaluates the effect of injector resistance on the mode shapes and complex eigenfrequencies of an injector/combustion chamber system by defining a high Mach-flow, potential flow form of the convective wave equation in the Coefficient Form PDE Mathematics interface. Background ... Read More

Infrasound Assessment of the Roller Compacted Concrete Dam: Case Study of the Portugues Dam in Ponce, PR

H. Diaz-Alvarez [1], V. P. Chiarito [1], S. McComas [1], M. H. McKenna [1],
[1] U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Vicksburg, MS, USA

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is currently investigating the use of infrasound sensors to monitor the health of structures of interest. Infrasound is low-frequency (2-20 Hz) acoustic energy and is capable of propagating many kilometers from the source structure. Large infrastructure, ... Read More

Advanced Topics in Acoustics Simulation

M. J. Herring Jensen [1]
[1] COMSOL A/S, Lyngby, Denmark

In this session, we will discuss and showcase a few examples of advanced acoustics applications. In this context, “advanced” means problems that cannot simply be modeled “out-of-the-box,” but require the flexibility and strengths of COMSOL Multiphysics® software. Topics include: • ... Read More

Solid Rocket Motor Combustion Instability Modeling in COMSOL Multiphysics® Software

S. R. Fischbach [1][2],
[1] Jacobs ESSSA Group, NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, AL, USA
[2] Qualis Corporation, Huntsville, AL, USA

Combustion instability modeling of Solid Rocket Motors (SRM) remains a topic of active research. Many rockets display violent fluctuations in pressure, velocity, and temperature originating from the complex interactions between the combustion process, acoustics, and steady-state gas ... Read More

Modeling Metamaterials with a Time-Domain Perfectly Matched Layer Formulation

H. Assi [1], R. S. C. Cobbold [1],
[1] University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada

INTRODUCTION: Perfectly matched layers (PML) have been widely used for simulating wave propagation in unbounded media to effectively avoid spurious wave reflections from the computational domain boundaries. Time-domain PML formulations, especially for elastic waves, usually use a complex ... Read More

Marine Vibrator Bubble Source Simulation and Testing

A. K. Morozov [1],
[1] Teledyne Marine Systems, North Falmouth, MA, USA

Marine Vibrators are a coherent type of sound source, which can be quieter and less harmful for marine habitants than traditional air-gun technology. Such source gives clearer, more precise and higher resolution imaging of the bottom properties due to the coherent signal and streamer ... Read More

Analysis of a Plasma-Mediated Photoacoustic Response From Plasmonic Nanoparticles in Ultrashort Regime

A. Hatef [1], B. Darvish [1], A. Dagallier [2], C. Boutopoulos [2], M. Meunier [2],
[1] Nipissing University, North Bay, ON, Canada
[2] École Polytechnique de Montréal, Montréal, QC, Canada

Over the last decade, plasmonic nanoparticles (PNPs) have received growing interest as exogenous contrast agents in the thermal expansion based photoacoustic (PA) imaging technique in biomedical applications [1]. Such functionality is due to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) ... Read More

A Computational Acoustic Interrogation of Damage to Wind Turbine Blades

R. Canturk [1], M. Inalpolat [1],
[1] University of Massachusetts - Lowell, Lowell, MA, USA

Modern wind turbine blades consist of composite airfoil shaped structures that form a hollow acoustic cavity. Because of continually varying aerodynamic forces, gravitational loads, lightning strikes, and weather conditions, all blades will experience leading and trailing edge splits, ... Read More

Simulation of SAW-Driven Microparticle Acoustophoresis Using COMSOL Multiphysics® Software

N. Nama [1], R. Barnkob [2], C. J. Kähler [2], T. J. Huang [1], F. Costanzo [1]
[1] Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics, Pennsylvania State University, PA, USA
[2] Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics, Bundeswehr University Munich, Neubiberg, Germany

Introduction - The ability to precisely manipulate fluid and particles at microscales is one of the essential requirements for various lab-on-a-chip applications such as drug diagnostics, chemical synthesis etc.[1] Recently, the nonlinear interaction of surface acoustic waves (SAW) with ...

Vibration Analysis of Rectangular Perforated Plates by COMSOL Multiphysics® Software

B. Raghavendra[1]
[1]SRM University & BITS Pilani University, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India

Vibration analysis of perforated plates is extremely important when designing structures where resonance is the possible mode of failure. This paper deals with the vibration analysis of rectangular perforated plates with three different types of perforations. Vibration analysis is to be ... Read More
