Acoustics Modeling in COMSOL Multiphysics®
Intensive introduction to simulating acoustics and vibrations using COMSOL Multiphysics®
This intensive course on simulating acoustics and vibrations using COMSOL Multiphysics software provides you with a comprehensive introduction to the Acoustics Module, an add-on to COMSOL Multiphysics.
During this 4-day course, we will discuss the capabilities of the Acoustics Module for modeling acoustics and vibrations as well as the interactions between these phenomena. You will learn how to use the built in functionalities to efficiently model an acoustic system that can include pressure waves in fluids and elastic waves in solids with possible couplings between pressure acoustics, structural mechanics, poroelastic waves, and piezoelectricity. You will also learn how to conduct modal, frequency domain and time domain analysis in order to obtain the desired output.
We will also discuss more advanced topics, such as thermoviscous acoustics, aeroacoustics, nonlinear acoustics, nondestructive testing, and electroacoustics. By the end of the course, you will understand the available numerical methods included in the Acoustics Module and know how to combine them for multiscale analysis of complicated acoustic systems.
Training Course Objective
The goal of this course is to immerse you in the COMSOL Multiphysics® modeling workflow and help you feel comfortable working with the Acoustics Module. We will use a combination of instructor-led and self-guided hands-on training together with theoretical and practical lectures. By the end of the training course, you will know how to efficiently model acoustics and vibrations with the COMSOL® software.
