“…The vibrations of higher modes can be suppressed by small damping, because a damping force is in proportion to the vibrating speed. The present authors presented a method for suppressing higher modal vibrations by using the fewer number of vibration absorbers with consideration of the damping phenomena just mentioned [19]. In the method, the absorbers control higher modes whose number is greater than the number of vibration absorbers.…”

“…However, few applications of neural networks as approximation scheme are known for structural acoustics. Nagaya and Li [4] applied a three-layered neural network system for optimization of fifteen variables. Another example of neural networks utilized holographic neural network [5].…”
An artificial neural network (ANN) is adjusted to make analytical approximation of objective function for a specific structural acoustic application. It is used as the replacement of the main real objective function during the optimization process. The goal of optimization is to find the best geometry modification of the considered model which is supposed to produce lower values of the radiated sound power levels. The result of this study shows that the function approximation by neural networks can reduce the duration of optimization procedure. Furthermore, the tuning of ANN internal parameter settings is a real challenge to be considered.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
