Acoustic-Structure Interaction with a Perfectly Matched Layer (PML)
Application ID: 23521
This small tutorial model shows how to set up a model with a solid mechanics and a pressure acoustics domain including a common perfectly matched layer (PML). The PML is used to model an open or infinite domain for both the elastic waves and the pressure waves.
Three configurations of PMLs are described:
One PML should be added when the PML region of two physics touches (described in the acoustic_structure_pml model).
If the PML regions do not touch add two PMLs – one for each physics.
Handling of a system with actuation through the PML region (described in the acoustic_structure_actuation_in_pml model).
This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products. To determine the right combination of products for your modeling needs, review the Specification Chart and make use of a free evaluation license. The COMSOL Sales and Support teams are available for answering any questions you may have regarding this.
