Wu S. Advances in Underwater...Vol 2. Structural Acoustics 2025

Textbook in PDF format

This set of volumes encompasses the study of acoustics to diverse environments ranging from underwater and marine environments, to structural and civil engineering, computational models and aerospace engineering. Each volume comprises peer-reviewed publications in the related field of acoustics from the past decade, arranged such as to review the existing literature, examine new methodologies and then explore novel applications of pioneering acoustic principles. With contributions by eminent acoustics researchers, this set holds key insights for fellow acoustics researchers and engineers of any field impacted by acoustic phenomena.
Volume 2 reviews topics including radiation boundary conditions for the Helmholtz equation, and analytical interpretation of the early literature on the theory of vibrations. The methodologies range from coupled boundary element and energy flow method as well as sound radiation of a line source. The work concludes with promising applications like Lamb Waves in a poroelastic plate and experimental validations of reconstructed excitation forces acting inside a solid enclosure
