Acoustics of Fluid-Structure Interactions

A reference for analytical methods for modelling acoustic problems, a repository of known results and methods in the theory of aerodynamic sound, and a graduate-level textbook.

List of contents

Preface; 1. Introduction; 2. Aerodynamic sound in unbounded flows; 3. Sound generation in a fluid with rigid boundaries; 4. Sound generation in a fluid with flexible boundaries; 5. Interaction of sound with solid structures; 6. Resonant and unstable systems; References.

Summary

Acoustics of Fluid-Structure Interactions addresses the theory of the production and absorption of noise and vibration by fluid flow. After providing background material in fluid mechanics, acoustics, and structural vibrations, it proceeds to more advanced topics, suited to a graduate-level course on the theory of acoustics and aerodynamic sound.
