Abstract: | In this paper, the prediction of averaged energy of damped structural-acoustic systems is investigated. A simplified energy finite element method, referred to as EFEM0, is developed based on the energy flow analysis (EFA) equations and implemented using the finite volume method. The resulting formulations can be incorporated into statistical energy analysis (SEA) software and extends SEA application to moderately damped systems with strong coupling. The formulations are verified against analytical solutions for a single beam and coupled beams with both strong and weak coupling. A hybrid technique consisting of the EFEM0 approximation superimposed on a direct field is used to model moderately damped plates. For lightly damped systems, both methods produce acceptable results. For moderately damped two-dimensional systems, the EFEM0 method augmented with the direct field component produces significantly improved results. |
