The book provides a survey of numerical methods for acoustics, namely the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM). It is the first book summarizing FEM and BEM (and optimization) for acoustics. The book shows that both methods can be effectively used for many other cases, FEM even for open domains and BEM for closed ones. Emphasis of the book is put on numerical aspects and on treatment of the exterior problem in acoustics, i.e. noise radiation.

The development of physics-based noise prediction tools for analysis of aerodynamic noise sources is of paramount importance since noise regulations have become more stringent. Direct simulation of aerodynamic noise remains prohibitively expensive for engineering problems because of the resolution requirements. Therefore, hybrid approaches that consist of predicting nearfield flow quantities by a suitable CFD simulation and farfield sound radiation by aeroacoustic integral methods are more attractive. In this work, we apply the fast multipole method (FMM) to accelerate the solution of boundary integral equation methods such as the boundary element method (BEM) and the Ffowcs Williams & Hawkings (FWH) acoustic analogy formulation. The FMM-BEM is implemented for the solution of acoustic scattering problems and the effects of non-uniform potential flows on acoustic scattering are investigated. The FMM-FWH is implemented for the solution of two and three-dimensional problems of sound propagation. The effects of flow convection and non-linear quadrupole sources are assessed through the study of sound generated by unsteady laminar flows. Finally, a hybrid methodology is applied for the investigation of airfoil noise. This study is important for the design of aerodynamic shapes such as wings and high-lift devices, as well as wind turbine blades, fans and propellers. The present investigation of airfoil self-noise generation and propagation concerns the broadband noise that arises from the interaction of turbulent boundary layers with the airfoil trailing edge and tonal noise that arises from vortex shedding generated by laminar boundary layers. Nearfield acoustic sources are computed using compressible large eddy simulation (LES) and acoustic predictions are performed by the FMM-FWH. Numerical simulations are conducted for a NACA0012 airfoil with tripped boundary layers and blunt rounded trailing edge at different Mach numbers and angles of incidence. The effects of non-linear quadrupole sources and convection are assessed. In order to validate the numerical solutions, flow simulation and acoustic prediction results are compared to experimental data available in the literature and excellent agreement is observed.

This book addresses nearly all aspects of the state of the art in LES & DNS of turbulent flows, ranging from flows in biological systems and the environment to external aerodynamics, domestic and centralized energy production, combustion, propulsion as well as applications of industrial interest. Following the advances in increased computational power and efficiency, several contributions are devoted to LES & DNS of challenging applications, mainly in the area of turbomachinery, including flame modeling, combustion processes and aeroacoustics. The book includes work presented at the tenth Workshop on 'Direct and Large-Eddy Simulation' (DLES-10), which was hosted in Cyprus by the University of Cyprus, from May 27 to 29, 2015. The goal of the workshop was to establish a state of the art in DNS, LES and related techniques for the computation and modeling of turbulent and transitional flows. The book is of interest to scientists and engineers, both in the early stages of their career and at a more senior level.

Computational aeroacoustics is rapidly emerging as an essential element in the study of aerodynamic sound. As with all emerging technologies, it is paramount that we assess the various opportuni ties and establish achievable goals for this new technology. Essential to this process is the identification and prioritization of fundamental aeroacoustics problems which are amenable to direct numerical siIn ulation. Questions, ranging from the role numerical methods play in the classical theoretical approaches to aeroacoustics, to the correct specification of well-posed numerical problems, need to be answered. These issues provided the impetus for the Workshop on Computa tional Aeroacoustics sponsored by ICASE and the Acoustics Division of NASA LaRC on April 6-9, 1992. The participants of the Work shop were leading aeroacousticians, computational fluid dynamicists and applied mathematicians. The Workshop started with the open ing remarks by M. Y. Hussaini and the welcome address by Kristin Hessenius who introduced the keynote speaker, Sir James Lighthill. The keynote address set the stage for the Workshop. It was both an authoritative and up-to-date discussion of the state-of-the-art in aeroacoustics. The presentations at the Workshop were divided into five sessions - i) Classical Theoretical Approaches (William Zorumski, Chairman), ii) Mathematical Aspects of Acoustics (Rodolfo Rosales, Chairman), iii) Validation Methodology (Allan Pierce, Chairman), iv) Direct Numerical Simulation (Michael Myers, Chairman), and v) Unsteady Compressible Flow Computa tional Methods (Douglas Dwoyer, Chairman).

Computational aeroacoustics (CAA) is a relatively new research area. CAA algorithms have developed rapidly and the methods have been applied in many areas of aeroacoustics. The objective of CAA is not simply to develop computational methods but also to use these methods to solve practical aeroacoustics problems and to perform numerical simulation of aeroacoustic phenomena. By analysing the simulation data, an investigator can determine noise generation mechanisms and sound propagation processes. This is both a textbook for graduate students and a reference for researchers in CAA and as such is self-contained. No prior knowledge of numerical methods for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) is needed, however, a general understanding of partial differential equations and basic numerical analysis is assumed. Exercises are included and are designed to be an integral part of the chapter content. In addition, sample computer programs are included to illustrate the implementation of the numerical algorithms.
