Abstract:Topology optimization for coupled acoustic-structural systems subjected to stationary random excitations is investigated. Bi-material elastic continuum structures without damping are considered. The finite element method is utilized to deal with coupled acoustic-structural problems. An accurate and highly efficient algorithm series for stationary random analysis techniques, pseudo excitation method, is extended to calculate the acoustic random response generated by the vibrating structures. Minimization of the auto power spectral density of sound pressure is taken as design objective and its sensitivities with respect to topological variables are derived by adjoint method. A penalty term is proposed to suppress the intermediate volumetric densities. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the validity of the presented methods.
