A Fully Coupled Electro-Vibro-Acoustic Benchmark Model for Evaluation of Self-Adaptive Control Strategies

The reduction of noise and vibration is possible with passive, semi-active and active control strategies. Especially where self-adaptive control is required, it is necessary to evaluate the noise reduction potential before the control approach is applied to the real-world problem. This evaluation ca...

description The reduction of noise and vibration is possible with passive, semi-active and active control strategies. Especially where self-adaptive control is required, it is necessary to evaluate the noise reduction potential before the control approach is applied to the real-world problem. This evaluation can be based on a virtual model that contains all relevant sub-systems, transfer paths and coupling effects on the one hand. On the other hand, the complexity of such a model has to be limited to focus on principal findings such as convergence speed, power consumption, and noise reduction potential. The present paper proposes a fully coupled electro-vibro-acoustic model for the evaluation of self-adaptive control strategies. This model consists of discrete electrical and mechanical networks that are applied to model the electro-acoustic behavior of noise and anti-noise sources. The acoustic field inside a duct, terminated by these electro-acoustic sources, is described by finite elements. The resulting multi-physical model is capable of describing all relevant coupling effects and enables an efficient evaluation of different control strategies such as the local control of sound pressure or active control of acoustic absorption. It is designed as a benchmark model for the benefit of the scientific community.
