Acoustics

Two particular subjects have retained our attention recently.

  1. Aeroacoustics, or more precisely, acoustic propagation in a moving compressible fluid, has been for our team a very challenging topic, which gave rise to a lot of open questions, from the modeling until the numerical approximation of existing models. Our works in this area are partially supported by Airbus. The final objective is to reduce the noise radiated by Airbus planes.

  2. Musical acoustics constitute a particularly attractive application. We are concerned by the simulation of musical instruments whose objectives are both a better understanding of the behavior of existing instruments and an aid for the manufacturing of new instruments. We have successively considered the timpani, the guitar and the piano.
