Modal Analyses
Modal analyses are used to model the acoustic modes of an acoustic cavity
(standing waves) or to compute the mode shapes of vibro-acoustic
systems.
Man can then tell which acoustic modes are causing problem or identify
vibration cause.

Impedance Boundary
Acoustic impedance indicates how much sound pressure is
generated by the vibration of molecules of a particular
acoustic medium at a given frequency.

Impedance Boundary
In general, a phase relation exists between the pressure and the
particle velocity. So the impedance becomes complex:
Z R iX
Where:
The reactive part represents the ability of air to store the kinetic energy
of the wave as potential energy since air is a compressible medium.

Impedance Boundary
Impedance or admittance boundary can be applied using the
Impedance Boundary object on free surfaces or on FSI
interface (Viscoelastic material with a thin layer of a porous
fabric separating both media to reduce the sound).

Impedance Boundary
The Impedance Boundary object allows you to define the resistance
and the reactance parts of the impedance (MAPDL command: (SF,,IMPD,
Resistance, Reactance)):
In modal analyses you have to use the admittance form so input the
conductance and the product of the capacitive susceptance and the
angular velocity (MAPDL command: (SF,,IMPD, - Conductance,
Susceptance*)):
G
*B=2f*B
Note: The impedance boundary condition would create a damping matrix, so we
would need to use the damped eigensolver to correctly include this damping
matrix.

It is also possible to define frequency varying impedance by
setting Frequency Dependency property to Yes.

Attenuation Surface
The attenuation coefficient is the ratio of the absorbed sound power
density to the incident sound power density. The ratio is expressed as
follows:

Unsymmetric formulation
Using unsymmetric algorithm its possible to use both unsymmetric and
uncoupled formulations. The best solution here in terms of number of
DOF to compute is to create a single of layer of elements using
unsymmetric algorithm at the FSI boundary and use uncoupled algorithm
for all other elements.

Symmetric formulation
In V13 we introduced a more efficient symmetry formulation.
With unsymmetric matrices we required twice of much memory
because we need to store the full matrix and not only the upper
triangular half so the memory required doubled and also the CPU
time increases maybe about 1.5 time. So with the symmetric
formulation this allow to maintain the symmetric nature of the
matrices so the memory requirement doesnt double and the CPU
time doesnt increase.

Symmetric formulation
The symmetric coupling algorithm is based on the
introduction of a displacement potential : u
This causes an increase of the matrices size but leads to
symmetric matrices and then reduces the elapsed time of
the simulation.
All the elements in the model must use the symmetric
formulation (impossible to mix unsymmetric and
symmetric formulation).

Frequency range
The stiffness-coupled symmetric formulation may lead to the
divergence for FSI eigen problem with zero beginning
frequency. So it is recommend to assign the beginning
frequency (e.g. 1.E-02).

Sloshing
In fluid dynamics, slosh refers to the movement of liquid inside another
object (which is, typically, also undergoing motion). Strictly speaking,
the liquid must have a free surface to constitute a slosh
dynamics problem, where the dynamics of the liquid can interact with
the container to alter the system dynamics significantly.
Important examples include propellant slosh in spacecraft tanks
and rockets (especially upper stages), and cargo slosh in ships and
trucks transporting liquids (for example oil and gasoline).

Sloshing
Assuming that the actual surface is at an elevation relative to the
mean surface in z-direction, the pressure for a sloshing (free)
surface is given by:

be defined to take into account sloshing
effects.
