To obtain the propagation characteristics of ship seismic waves, an algorithm for calculating Seismic waves at the seafloor is presented based on the staggered-grid finite difference method. The accuracy of the algorithm was tested by comparison with analytical solutions. Numerical simulation of seismic waves generated by a low-frequency point sotmd source in a typical shallow sea environment was carried out. Using various source frequencies and locations in the numerical simulation, we show that the seismic waves in the near field are composed mostly of transmitted S-waves and interface waves while transmitted P-waves are weak near the seafloor. However, in the far field, the wave components of the seismic wave are mainly normal modes and interface waves, with the latter being relatively strong in the waveforms, As the source frequency decreases, the normal modes become smaller and the interface waves dominate the time series of the seismic waves.展开更多

Firstly, mesh sensitivity analysis and grid-independent analysis are carried out for the computer code validation. Then, the numerical method is further validated by comparing the calculated results and experimental data. Thirdly, the effects of head-end cavity on the pressure oscillation am-plitudes are studied in this paper. The results indicate that cavity volume, location and configuration have a cooperative ef- fect on the oscillation amplitude. It is proved that Rayleigh criterion can be used as a guiding principle for the design of reso- nance damping cavity. The change of the head-end cavity breaks the balance between the mass flux and acoustic energy. Therefore, the pressure oscillation characteristics change accordingly. It is concluded that a large mass flux added at the pres- sure antinode could attribute to significant amplitude. Meanwhile, the damping effect of the cavity is stronger when the dis- tance between cavity and pressure antinode becomes shorter. Finally, this method is applied to the modification of an engi- neering solid rocket motor. The static test of solid rocket motor reflects that the oscillations can be effectively suppressed by a head-end cavity.展开更多
