For river crossing bridges, the vehicle-induced vibration can be transmitted to the bridge tower and foundation system. This vibration induced low frequency underwater noise radiation can cause great harm to aquatic organisms. A river crossing suspension bridge was selected to study the sound contribution and spatial distribution of the underwater noise. A bridge-sediment coupling finite element model was developed, and the vehicle-bridge-sediment interaction analysis was conducted to investigate the dynamic response of the coupling system. An acoustic finite element model was built to predict the underwater noise radiated from the tower and sediment, and the noise contribution of these two sound sources was compared. The research shows that the noise radiated from the bridge tower and the sediment is below 6.3 Hz, and the peak frequency is around 3.15 Hz. The noise radiated from bridge tower only has a larger contribution to the total noise level in its vicinity than the sediment, especially around the water surface. In other space, the noise generated through the sediment vibration plays a dominant role in the total noise. The radiated noise from the tower has lateral directivity, and the directivity of the sediment radiation is similar to the point sound source.

Vibration is challenging and significant in solving engineering problems. The issue of vibration in loaded objects by utilizing a three-dimensional model and experiments. Typically, an object is subjected to a random frequency, which changes the notch shape depending on the frequency model. The investigations determined the performance difference by conducting modal analysis with the finite element method and examining the various forms of each mode. We simulated metal plates with V notch and multiple notch locations on both sides and one side of the notch. The test kits included an accelerometer and a force sensor for correcting the national frequency via Simulink Matlab® and verifying the result from the finite element methods. The V-shaped vibration testing provided significant insights into its accuracy and potential for predicting damage and fracture through experimentation and the finite element method. The tested specimen analyzed the behavior of two models and found that the two V-shaped exhibited varying natural frequency values. Specifically, the double-sided V-shaped increased natural frequency, whereas the single-sided notched V-shaped cutting showed a significant decrease in natural frequency. Accordingly, this investigative approach, the result of the experiment, and the finite element shows that correlation disposition can be utilized to forecast various random frequencies for vibration analysis.
... In order to comprehensively explore the influence of the frequency-dependent viscoelasticity of the rail pad on the acoustic radiation characteristics of the box girder, this study quotes the sound power level in [27] and the sound power level contribution coefficient in [28] as the evaluation index. Since the sound power level includes two indicators, namely, the panel's sound pressure and the panel's normal vibration velocity, it can more directly reflect the acoustic radiation characteristics of the box girder. ...

In order to investigate the mechanism of the frequency-dependent viscoelasticity of the rail pad on the acoustic radiation characteristics of a box girder viaduct, this study establishes a high-order model of its dynamic parameters to reveal the frequency-varying viscoelasticity of the rail pad, and establishes a vehicle–track–viaduct vertical coupling model. Finally, the acoustic radiation characteristics of a box girder viaduct are analyzed by combining the finite element method and the boundary element theory. The results show that the S-stiffness and D-stiffness of the rail pad increase with the increase in frequency, and the frequency sensitivity of the S-stiffness is greater than that of the D-stiffness. The high-order characterization model of the dynamic parameters of the rail pad has a good fitting effect. The main influence frequency band of the frequency variable viscoelasticity of the rail pad on the wheel–rail force and the equivalent discrete spring force of the sliding layer is 30–90 Hz, resulting in the shift of the dominant frequency to a high frequency by 4 Hz. We consider that the frequency-varying viscoelasticity of the rail pad will cause the dominant frequency of the acoustic pressure level of the field point to shift to a high frequency of 4–6 Hz, which has the greatest influence on the sound pressure level of each field point at the Peak Frequency Point of Insertion Loss (PFPIL), and the influence degree is consistent, resulting in the maximum value of the total sound pressure level of the surface field increasing by 4.1 dB. Without considering the frequency-varying viscoelasticity of the rail pad, the sound pressure level of each field point at 20–53 Hz will be overestimated and the sound pressure level of each field point in the 53–100 Hz frequency band will be underestimated. The panel sound power level contribution coefficient of the box girder is obviously different at different frequency points.
