Synopsis:

Effectively Construct Integral Formulations Suitable for Numerical Implementation

Finite Element and Boundary Methods in Structural Acoustics and Vibration provides a unique and in-depth presentation of the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM) in structural acoustics and vibrations. It illustrates the principles using a logical and progressive methodology which leads to a thorough understanding of their physical and mathematical principles and their implementation to solve a wide range of problems in structural acoustics and vibration.

Addresses Typical Acoustics, Electrodynamics, and Poroelasticity Problems

It is written for final-year undergraduate and graduate students, and also for engineers and scientists in research and practice who want to understand the principles and use of the FEM and the BEM in structural acoustics and vibrations. It is also useful for researchers and software engineers developing FEM/BEM tools in structural acoustics and vibration.

This text:

• Reviews current computational methods in acoustics and vibrations with an emphasis on their frequency domains of applications, limitations, and advantages
• Presents the basic equations governing linear acoustics, vibrations, and poroelasticity
• Introduces the fundamental concepts of the FEM and the BEM in acoustics
• Covers direct, indirect, and variational formulations in depth and their implementation and use are illustrated using various acoustic radiation and scattering problems
• Addresses the exterior coupled structural–acoustics problem and presents several practical examples to demonstrate the use of coupled FEM/BEM tools, and more

About the Author:

Noureddine Atalla is a professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering (Université de Sherbrooke). He is also a member and past director of GAUS (Group d’Acoustique et de vibration de l’Universite de Sherbrooke). Professor Atalla received an MSC in 1988 from the Université de Technologie de Compiègne (France) and a PhD in 1991 in ocean engineering from Florida Atlantic University (USA). His core expertise is in computational vibroacoustics and modeling and characterization of acoustic materials. He has published more than 100 papers and is also the co-author of a book on the modeling of sound porous materials.

Franck Sgard

is team leader of the mechanical and physical risk prevention group at the Institut Robert Sauvé en Santé et Sécurité du Travail (IRSST) in Montreal (Canada). He graduated from Ecole Nationale des Travaux Publics de l’Etat (ENTPE) in Vaulx en Velin (France) as a civil engineer in 1990. He obtained his master’s degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Washington (Seattle) in 1991. In 1992 and 1993, he worked as a research assistant in the acoustic group of the University of Sherbrooke (GAUS). He then started a joint PhD (University of Sherbrooke/Institut National des Sciences Appliquées in Lyon, France) in mechanical engineering (acoustics), which he completed in 1995. From 1995 till 2006, he worked as a professor at ENTPE, teaching acoustics
