Research on Vibration and Sound Radiation from Submarine Functionally Graded Material Nonpressure Cylindrical Shell

Abstract:

In this paper, we establish the finite element (FEM) and boundary element (BEM) models of a submarine section, and study the underwater sound radiation field of three different non-pressure shells made of steel, steel with anechoic tile, and the functionally graded materials (FGM) separately using a method combining of FEM and BEM . Research shows that the combination of FEM and BEM can address the acoustic radiation calculation problem of FGM, and in comparison with steel and anechoic tile laying submarine section, the weight of FGM non-pressure shell reduces 1600kg, and the sound radiation power decreases 4db and 2.5db respectively, thus having better performance in vibration and noise reduction.
