A series expansion method has been proposed to speed up this process just by taking the frequency-dependent terms out of the integral sign. However, this method, constrained by the number of truncation terms, is only applicable to low and medium frequencies and/or small-size structures. This paper develops an improved series expansion method that can be employed in a wider frequency band and larger-scale problems but with less computing expense. In the present method, the frequency-dependent term kr in the integral kernel is firstly transformed into the range from -π to π due to the periodicity of sine and cosine functions. Afterwards, truncation error would be kept reasonably small while the number of expansion terms would not increase with kr. Test cases of acoustic radiation from a pulsating sphere and a cat's eye structure are conducted and numerical results show significant reduction of computational time but suffering little accuracy loss for multi-frequency problems with this approach.","PeriodicalId":54860,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Acoustics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1142/S0218396X14500155","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64075408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is based on the invariance of the wave equations, in the absence of dissipation, in the time direction. This allows going backward in time to recover past events. We use time reversal to recover the location of a source applied at the initial time based on measurements at a later time. We generalize the procedure previously developed for the scalar wave equation1 to elastodynamics. We show that the technique is quite robust, sometimes even in the presence of very high noise levels. Also it is not very sensitive to the medium characterizations, when a sufficient amount of measurement data is available. We extend previous work to get good refocusing for multiple sources. We introduce a new score to assess the quality of the numerical solution for the refocusing problem which produces good results. Furthermore, we use the refocusing technique as a basis for scatterer location recovery. By adding noise in a controlled manner we improve the scheme of finding the location of the scatterer.","PeriodicalId":54860,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Acoustics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1142/S0218396X14500131","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64075085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In theoretical investigations, the liner geometry is often assumed as an array of symmetric micro resonator with orifice or slit at the center. However, in real application, orifices or slits distributed in micro resonator are offset. For better understanding of sound absorption mechanism of micro resonator with offset slits under high incident sound pressure level (SPL), direct numerical simulations (DNS) using high order low dispersion and low dissipation computational aeroacoustics (CAA) method are carried out. The simulations are first validated by experimental data, showing good agreement and establishing the relevance of the simulation methodology. Numerical simulations of resonators with single offset slit or two slits are then conducted. The two sound absorption mechanisms, namely viscous dissipation and vortex shedding, are discussed with detailed numerical data and analysis, which lead to quantitative parametric description of the energy partition between the two mechanisms as a function of both frequency and geometry. It is shown that offset slit can reduce vortex shedding and results in less sound absorption. The effects of more than one slit are, however, opposite; more vortex shedding occurs with more slits so that sound absorption is enhanced. This may potentially help guide liner design in practical applications.","PeriodicalId":54860,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Acoustics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1142/S0218396X15500010","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64076128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yoon","doi":"10.1142/S0218396X15500022","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218396X15500022","url":null,"abstract":"This research aims to develop a novel unified analysis method for an acoustic-porous-structure multiphysics interaction system when the porous medium is modeled by the empirical Delany–Bazley formulation. Multiphysics analysis of acoustic structure interaction is commonly performed by solving the linear elasticity and Helmholtz equations separately and enforcing a mutual coupling boundary condition. If the pressure attenuation from a porous material is additionally considered, the multiphysics analysis becomes highly intricate, because three different media (acoustic, porous, and elastic structures) with different governing equations and interaction boundary conditions should be properly formulated. To overcome this difficulty, this paper proposes the application of a novel mixed formulation to consider the mutual coupling effects among the acoustic, fibrous (porous), and elastic structure media. By combining the mixed finite element formulation with the Delany–Bazley formulation, a multiphysics simulation of sound propagation considering the coupling effects among the three media can be easily conducted. To show the validity of the present unified approach, several benchmark problems are considered.","PeriodicalId":54860,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Acoustics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1142/S0218396X15500022","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64076215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The PSTD Method with the 4th-Order Time Integration for 3D TAT Reconstruction of a Breast Model","authors":"Gang Ye, Chunhua Deng, Q. Liu","doi":"10.1142/S0218396X14500118","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218396X14500118","url":null,"abstract":"The thermoacoustic tomography (TAT) is a novel noninvasive and nonionizing medical imaging modality for breast cancer detection. In the TAT, a short pulse of microwave is irradiated to the breast tissue. The tissue absorbs the microwave energy and is heated up momentarily, thus it generates acoustic waves due to the thermoelastic expansion. If the pulse width of the microwave radiation is around one microsecond, the generated acoustic waves are ultrasonic and are in the MHz range. Wide-band ultrasonic transducers are employed to acquire the time-resolved ultrasound signals, which carry information about the microwave absorption properties (mainly related to conductivities) of different tissues. An image showing such properties can then be reconstructed from the time-resolved ultrasound signals. Most existing TAT reconstruction methods are based on the assumption that the tissue under study is acoustically homogeneous. In practice, however, most biological tissues are inhomogeneous. For example, the speed of sound has about 10% variation in breast tissue. The acoustic heterogeneity will cause phase distortion of the pressure field, which will in turn cause blurring in the reconstructed image, thus limiting the ability to resolve small objects. In this work, a 3D inhomogeneous reconstruction method based on pseudo-spectral time-domain (PSTD) is presented to overcome this problem. The method includes two steps. The first step is a homogeneous reconstruction process, from which an initial image is obtained. Since the inhomogeneity itself is usually an acoustic source, the shape and location of the inhomogeneity can be estimated. Then, the acoustic properties of the inhomogeneities (available from the literatures for known tissue types) are assigned to the classified regions, and the other reconstruction based on the updated acoustic property map is conducted. With this process, the phase distortion can be effectively corrected. So it can improve the ability to image small objects. A 3D breast phantom is used to study the proposed method. The breast phantom was generated based on the data set of the Visible Human Project. Regions of different tissue types have been classified and acoustic and electric properties are assigned to such regions. Small phantom tumors placed in the breast phantom have been reconstructed successfully with the inhomogeneous reconstruction method. Improved resolution has been achieved compared to that obtained by homogeneous method.","PeriodicalId":54860,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Acoustics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1142/S0218396X14500118","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64075450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the acoustic contrast control process, computational ocean acoustics are used to calculate the Green's function between the source point and the field point. The effects of environmental parameters, which comprised the number of control sources, transmission frequency, control distances between sources and control zone of a geometric location were simulated.
