Numerical simulation of vibroacoustic problems by the modal synthesis

In the vibroacoustic studies of coupled fluid-structure systems, reducing the size of the problem is important because we must add all the degrees of freedom of the fluid domain to those of the structure. We propose a modal synthesis method for solving this type of problem, coupling dynamic substructure of Craig and Bampton type and acoustic subdomain based on a pressure formulation. The application of the proposed method is performed on a boat propeller with four blades, in air and water. Our numerical results are confronted to some experimental study which allows validate jointly the calculation process and the proposed method.
