An interval and random moment-based arbitrary polynomial chaos method (IRMAPCM) is proposed in this paper for the analysis of periodical composite structural-acoustic systems with multi-scale uncertain-but-bounded parameters. In IRMAPCM, the response of structural-acoustic system is approximated as moment-based arbitrary polynomial chaos (maPC) expansion. IRMAPCM can construct the polynomial basis according to the moment of the random variable without knowing the Probability Density Function (PDF), which can avoid the errors introduced by estimating the PDF. Numerical examples of a hexahedral box and an automobile passenger compartment are given to investigate the effectiveness of IRMAPCM for the prediction of the sound pressure response of structural-acoustic systems.

For the vibro-acoustic system with interval and random uncertainties, polynomial chaos expansions have received broad and persistent attention. Nevertheless, the cost of the computation process increases sharply with the increasing number of uncertain parameters. This study presents a novel interval and random polynomial expansion method, called Sparse Grids’ Sequential Sampling-based Interval and Random Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos (SGS-IRAPC) method, to obtain the response of a vibro-acoustic system with interval and random uncertainties. The proposed SGS-IRAPC retains the accuracy and the simplicity of the traditional arbitrary polynomial chaos method, while avoiding its inefficiency. In the SGS-IRAPC, the response is approximated by the moment-based arbitrary polynomial chaos expansion and the expansion coefficient is determined by the least squares approximation method. A new sparse sampling scheme combined the sparse grids’ scheme with the sequential sampling scheme which is employed to generate the sampling points used to calculate the expansion coefficient to decrease the computational cost. The efficiency of the proposed surrogate method is demonstrated using a typical mathematical problem and an engineering application.

Traditional methods for stiffness analysis of the air spring are based on deterministic assumption that the parameters are fixed. However, uncertainties have widely existed, and the mechanic property of the air spring is very sensitive to these uncertainties. To model the uncertainties in the air spring, the interval/random variables models are introduced. For response analysis of the interval/random variables models of the air spring system, a new unified orthogonal polynomial expansion method, named as sparse quadrature-based interval and random moment arbitrary polynomial chaos method (SQ-IRMAPC), is proposed. In SQ-IRMAPC, the response of the acoustic system related to both interval and random variables is approximated by the moment-based arbitrary orthogonal polynomial expansion. To efficiently calculate the coefficient of the interval and random orthogonal polynomial expansion, the sparse quadrature is introduced. The proposed SQ-IRMAPC was employed to analyze the mechanic performance of an air spring with interval and/or random variables, and its effectiveness has been demonstrated by fully comparing it with the most recently proposed orthogonal polynomial-based interval and random analysis method.
