Acoustic wave propagation in porous media is one of the most important researches of continuous medium mechanics.In the course of Acoustic Theory and Engineering Application,the COMSOL multi-physics finite element software is introduced into the course teaching.The visualization simulations based on COMSOL are carried out to improve the students'learning interest and to help further understand the acoustic wave propagation and dissipation in porous materials.Specifically,a finite element model for acoustic wave propagation in porous material is developed in COMSOL software.Meanwhile,the concepts of acoustic pressure,particle velocity,sound intensity and energy dissipation are explained in the process of numerical calculation.Numerical calculations are conducted to explain how to solve the surface acoustic impedance,reflection coefficient and absorption coefficient in the software.Moreover,the propagation and energy dissipation mechanism of acoustic waves in porous materials are discussed.The above teaching method promotes the students'theoretical learning and software simulation,and remarkably enhances the students'innovative thinking and autonomous learning ability.
