The nodal unknowns are the pressure values p(x). Since the pressure satisfies a second-order differential equation (wave or Helmholtz equation), linear interpolation can be used inside the elements.

Response Analysis Damping Matrix Dynamic load with forcing frequency ω 2 K + iω C ω M p = f Direct solution: Modal Superposition: p = Φ y p 2 1 = K + iω C ω M f K C M y f T 2 T Φ + iω ω Φ = Φ T T Φ KΦ, Φ MΦ are diagonal matrices. If modal damping T Φ CΦ is assumed, then is also diagonal.. HAW/M+P, Ihlenburg, CompA Acoustics with FEM 12

13 Damping effects in cavities Sound energy of is lost (within or from a bounded cavity) by: a) volume damping (internal friction within the cavity volume) b) interface damping (friction with boundary interfaces, particularly porous materials) c) radiation damping and transmission (sound is leaving the cavity) b) a) c) HAW/M+P, Ihlenburg, CompA Acoustics with FEM 13

14 Volume (Material) Damping FEM: η ω 2 K(1 + i ) M p = f Loss factor Nastran: PARAM, GFL HAW/M+P, Ihlenburg, CompA Acoustics with FEM 14

15 Modal Damping (Fluid) Consider the reduced undamped equation T 2 T 2 2 Φ KΦ ω Φ MΦ y = diag( ωi ) ω I y = f diag(2 ξ ω ) and add a modal damping matrix system for damped vibrations in the form 2 2 diag ( ωi ) iω diag (2 ξiωi ) ω I y = f i i to obtain the It is usually not easy to determine the modal damping factors. In practice one often uses frequency-constant modal damping parameters. Relation to material damping: Equations (1) and (2) can be compared formally by setting iη K η ω = iω C ω 2 diag ( i ). Nastran: TAMDMP1 Modal transform then leads to the diagonal damping matrix ξ i Constant (over the volume) material damping is numerically equivalent to constant (over the range of eigenfrequencies) modal damping with the relation η ξi 2 HAW/M+P, Ihlenburg, CompA Acoustics with FEM 15
