Abstract

This paper is devoted to topology optimization problems formulated with the design objective of minimizing the sound power radiated from the structural surface(s) into a surrounding acoustic medium. Bi-material elastic continuum structures without material damping are considered. The structural vibrations are excited by time-harmonic external mechanical loading with prescribed excitation frequency, amplitude, and spatial distribution. Several numerical results are presented and discussed for bi-material plate-like structures with different sets of boundary and loading conditions.
