Abstract
Structural acoustic optimization is performed on a ribbed panel exited by diffuse acoustic field and turbulent boundary layer (TBL) flow. In order to vary the rib location during the optimization, component mode synthesis (CMS) was used with the rib and plate treated as separate substructures. The CMS approach couples the individual modes of the rib and plate using impedances at the connection points thus only requiring full eigenanalysis and radiation resistance calculations once and allowing for more rapid function evaluation during the optimization. The optimization was then performed using an evolutionary strategy with covariance matrix adaption. The rib location and properties were varied by the optimizer to find the best low-noise panel. An exhaustive search was performed to verify the optimum solution and compare results for several objective functions. Alternative design variables and constraints will also be discussed.
