Descriptif
Some noise sources can propagate over large distances, and interact in a complex manner with the propagation medium and with the frontiers of the domain. The objectives of this course are to :
- describe the physical phenomena involved in acoustic propagation: ground reflection and topography interaction, refraction effects, diffraction by obstacles, scattering by turbulent fluctuations and other inhomogeneities, etc.;
- propose models to account for these phenomena;
- apply relevant numerical methods to solve an acoustic propagation problem in a specific situation.
This course mostly focuses on the acoustic propagation in the atmospheric boundary layer, but other propagation media such as the ocean or the human body are also mentioned. Numerous application examples are presented, both for audible, infrasonic and ultrasonic sound sources.
