Modeling Pressure Acoustics

---

In this 9-part, self-paced course, learn how to model pressure acoustics in COMSOL Multiphysics^®. Through step-by-step demonstrations in the software, comprehensive discussions, and thorough explanations, you will gain a solid foundation in the fundamentals of building such models. You will also learn about various specialized physics features and modeling techniques you can use to efficiently perform acoustics analysis. The material covered through the duration of the course is as follows:

Room acoustics surround domain, open space, and half space. Different versions of the acoustics of a room geometry used for various pressure acoustics analyses performed through the duration of the course.

Part 1: Modeling Room Acoustics

• Introduce example and build from start to finish

Part 2: Meshing and Solving Pressure Acoustics Models

• Meshing and solver considerations and options

Part 3: Including Damping in Pressure Acoustics Models

• Implementing boundary damping and volumetric damping

Part 4: Pressure Acoustics Analysis via Perfectly Matched Layers (PMLs)

• Setting up PMLs to model open space for frequency domain analysis

Part 5: Scattered Field Analysis with the Background Pressure Field Feature

• Using the feature to model and study the scattered pressure field

Part 6: Modeling Pressure Acoustics with the Boundary Element Method

• Review differences in the model setup (versus FEM-based analysis) for pressure acoustics models
• Perform an open space acoustics analysis using BEM

Part 7: Modeling Transient Pressure Acoustics with the Finite Element Method

• Resolving time-dependent waves

Part 8: Setting Up Perfectly Matched Layers for Transient Pressure Acoustics Models

• Setting up PMLs to model open space for transient analysis
