The seabed condition is represented by a penetrable boundary of prescribed density and sound speed. This method is employed in this paper to predict the vibration and acoustic radiation of a 1 500 t Small Water Area Twin Hull (SWATH) ship in shallow sea acoustic environment. The wet resonant frequencies and radiation sound source levels are predicted and compared with the measured results of the ship in trial.展开更多

In this method the three-dimensional hydroelasticity theory of floating bodies is combined with the shallow water wave theory, to allow for proper description of the influence of uneven seabed and sheltering effect of islands on the hydroelastic responses of a VLFS deployed near island and reefs in shallow sea. This method and the numerical procedures were verified and validated by comparison-between the predictions and the model test results of a 3-module VLFS and an 8-module VLFS in two simulated shallow sea regions with different seabed topography.展开更多

To enable the predictions of coupled transient or nonlinear vibrations and acoustic radiations of ship structures, a time domain three-dimensional sono-elastic analysis method of acoustic responses of a floating structure is presented. The frequency domain added mass and radiation damping coefficients of the ship are first calculated by a three-dimensional frequency domain analysis method, from which a retardation function is derived and converted into the generalized time domain radiation force through a convolution integral. On this basis the generalized time domain sono-elastic equations of motion of the ship hull in water are established for calculation of the steady-state or transient-state excitation induced coupled vibrations and acoustic radiations of the ship. The generalized hydrodynamic coefficients, structural vibrations and underwater acoustic radiations of an elastic spherical shell excited by a concentrated pulsating force are illustrated and compared with analytical solutions with good agreement. The numerical results of a rectangular floating body are also presented to discuss the numerical error resultant from truncation of the upper integration limit in the Fourier integral of the frequency domain added mass coefficients for the retardation function.展开更多
