Mathematics & Statistics Theses & Dissertations

Traditionally, the acoustic source terms are modeled by single frequency sinusoidal functions. In the present study, the acoustic sources are modeled by a broadband wave packet. Radiation of acoustic waves at all frequencies can be obtained by Time Domain Wave Packet (TDWP) method in a single time domain computation. The TDWP method is also particularly useful for computations in the ducted or waveguide environments where incident wave modes can be imposed cleanly without a potentially long transient period. Theoretical analysis as well as numerical validation are performed in this study. In addition, the adjoint equations for the linearized Euler equations …
