Acoustics Modeling in COMSOL Multiphysics^®

If you want to learn how to use COMSOL Multiphysics software to model acoustics and vibration phenomena, this is the course for you. The Acoustics and Vibrations Analysis course will provide you with a comprehensive introduction to the Acoustics Module, an add-on to COMSOL Multiphysics.

As part of the training, we will demonstrate simulations of both pressure waves in fluids and elastic waves in solids with couplings between pressure acoustics, structural mechanics, and piezoelectricity in addition to the frequency characteristics of an acoustic system. We will also cover modal, frequency-response, and transient simulations, as well as more advanced topics, such as nondestructive testing, aeroacoustics, thermoacoustics, nonlinear acoustics, and electroacoustics. Along with the Acoustics Module, you will get to use the Structural Mechanics Module during this training course.
