Modelling tools for quieter vehicles : Waves in poro– and visco–elastic continuaÖstberg, Martin January 2012 (has links)
New modelling tools intended to contribute to the development of components for quieter vehicles are developed. The tools are based on continuum models for wave propagation in poro– and visco–elastic media. By using geometric attributes of the studied components, the computational cost may be radically decreased compared to traditional methods. By assigning known analytical functions for one or two of the spatial directions, the spatial dimension of the remaining numerical problem is reduced. This reduction of spatial dimensions is performed in two di↵erent ways. The first one treats wave propagation in infinitely extended homogeneous and hollowed cylindrical rods, or wave guides, consisting of visco–elastic media. The wave solutions obtained are then used to model rubber vibration isolators of finite length by mode–matching the fields to the radial boundary conditions of interest. The second one is a method for modelling rotationally symmetric multilayered structures consisting of poro–elastic, elastic and fluid domains. By using a harmonic expansion for the azimuthal spatial dependence, the original three–dimensional problem is split up into several, much smaller, two– dimensional ones, radically decreasing the computational load. Moreover, using a mixed measurement/modelling approach, the audible frequency range characteristics of a viscous damper from a truck is studied, illustrating the influence of the rubber bushings by which it is attached to surrounding structures. The modelling approaches presented in this thesis are intended as tools aiding the design process of new vehicles, enabling new technology striving for more sustainable vehicle concepts. More specifically, the tools aim to improve the modelling of sound and vibration properties which are often penalised when seeking new, more sustainable vehicle designs. / <p>QC 20120522</p> / Centre for Eco2 Vehicle Design

Modelling tools for quieter vehicles : Waves in poro-and visco-elastic continua / Outils de modélisation pour les véhicules silencieux : ondes dans les milieux continus poro- et viscoélastiquesÖstberg, Martin 07 June 2012 (has links)
De nouveaux outils de modélisation permettant de contribuer au développement de véhicules silencieux sont développés. Ils sont fondes sur des modèles continus de propagation d'ondes en milieux poro- et viscoélastiques. Par l'exploitation des spécificités géométriques des éléments étudiés, les temps de calculs associes peuvent être grandement améliorés par rapport a l'utilisation de modélisations plus traditionnelles. Ainsi, l'utilisation de fonctions analytiques pré-déterminées pour une ou deux directions permet de réduire la dimension spatiale du problème numérique restant a résoudre. Cette réduction de dimension spatiale est introduite pour deux configurations privilégiées. Premièrement, elle est appliquée a la propagation d'ondes au sein de cylindres creux, infiniment longs, et homogènes, ou guides d'onde, en matériau viscoélastique. Les solutions obtenues en termes d'ondes sont ensuite utilisées afin de modéliser des amortisseurs de vibration en caoutchouc, de longueur finie, en faisant correspondre les modes aux conditions limites radiales du problème. Dans un deuxième temps, une méthode de réduction de la dimension spatiale du problème est appliquée a la modélisation des tructures multicouches avec symétrie de révolution, composées de domaines poro-élastiques, élastiques et fluides. En utilisant une décomposition en série harmonique de la dépendance spatiale azimutale,le problème d'origine, en trois dimensions, est décomposé en plusieurs petits problèmes de deux dimensions, réduisant radicalement le coût en temps de calcul. De plus, par une méthode mixte alliant mesures et méthodes numériques, les caractéristiques d'un amortisseur visqueux de poids lourd sont déterminées, dans le domaine fréquentiel audible, illustrant l'influence des coussinets en caoutchouc au niveau des attaches avec les pièces voisines. Les approches de modélisation présentées dans cette thèse ont pour but de contribuer aux outils de conception de véhicules nouveaux, intégrant de nouvelles technologies permettant de s'inscrire dans l'objectif de produire des véhicules durables. Tout particulièrement, ces outils ont pour objectif l'amélioration de la modélisation des vibrations et nuisances sonores, qui sont souvent pénalisés lors de la conception de nouveaux concepts de véhicules durables. / New modelling tools intended to contribute to the development of components for quieter vehicles are developed.
