A Parallel Implementation of Acoustic Propagation Model on Cloud Platform

AbstractThis paper proposes a two-dimensional underwater sound propagation model using the Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Method (DG-FEM) to investigate the influence of current on sound propagation. The acoustic field is calculated by the convected wave equation with the current speed parameter. Based on the current speed data from an assimilation model, a two-dimensional coupled acoustic propagation model in the Fram Strait water area is established to observe the variability in propagation loss under different seasonal velocities in the real ocean environment. The transmission loss and signal time structure are examined. The results obtained in different source frequencies are also compared. It appears that the current velocity, time and range variation all have an effect on underwater sound propagation.

Continuous Adjoint

A novel continuous adjoint-based acoustic propagation method is proposed for low-noise turbofan duct design. A fan bypass duct tonal noise propagation model that is verified by comparison with an analytical solution of the modal radiation from a semi-infinite duct with the shear layer is enhanced with its continuous adjoint formulation, having been applied to design the bypass duct. First, this article presents the complete formulation of the time-dependent optimal design problem. Second, a continuous adjoint-based acoustic propagation method for two-dimensional bypass duct configurations is derived and presented. This article aims at describing the potential of the adjoint technique for aeroacoustic shape optimization. The implementation of the unsteady aeroacoustic adjoint method is validated by comparing the sensitivity derivative with that obtained by finite differences. Using a continuous adjoint formulation, the necessary aerodynamic gradient information is obtained with large computational savings over traditional finite-difference methods. The examples presented demonstrate that the combination of a continuous-adjoint algorithm with a noise prediction method can be an efficient design tool in the bypass duct noise design problem.

<p>Preliminary results are presented from an analysis of modeled mid-frequency sound propagation through a measured large-amplitude nonlinear internal solitary wave, and in-situ measurements of trains of nonlinear internal waves in northern South China Sea (SCS) as well. An acoustic propagation model based on ray theory was utilized to compute the transmission loss (TL) associated with passing the large depression measured internal waves. The TL was computed using the model considering (1) range-dependent and range-independent environmental scenario and (2) for different source and receiver depth configurations. This presentation will propose several interesting aspects of influence of internal waves on acoustic propagation, including "shadow zones", with or without eddy, etc.</p>

Long Time

In a long time, the specialists in underwater acoustic countermeasure field were used to get an approximate evaluation of the transmission loss of noise signals by spreading loss equation of spherical wave, which led to results with a low accurateness. Based on normal mode theories and discrete Fourier transformation (DFT), derived the composition and process of the broadband acoustic propagation model. Then the transmission loss could be calculated via this propagation model, which could get a relatively more accurate result. The influence of three key positional parameters, the orientation, distance and depth of the noise-jammer were studied in this paper. The method and conclusions in this paper can provide a reliable foundation for tactical research on noise-jammers.
