Abstract
In this work, a numerical effort is presented for modelling and control
of structure-acoustics coupled systems. Modelling of sound transmission
through a panel-cavity-panel system is presented. An approximate series
solution is assumed and the solution is obtained using Galarkin’s method.
The system to be modelled is consisting of a rectangular cavity with two
flexible panels, one at the top of the cavity while the other at the bottom
and four other fixed boundaries. PZT pair patches are considered to be
bonded to the top panel, and each pair is assumed to produce a pure moment
actuation when an electric drive signal is used to excite them. The flexible
panel is exposed to an external pressure excitation due to a planar wave
generated by a sound source mounted above the cavity. Displacements at the
mid points are calculated for the upper and lower panels. The developed
model is controlled using the optimal LQR control law. The numerically
obtained time responses from the compensated model are found to be
acceptable compared to the uncompensated ones. It is found that the
actuation of the upper panel can decrease the vibration of the lower one
rather than decreasing the acoustic pressure inside the cavity.
