This study presents a simulation of interactions between sound and a surrounding pipe structure conveying fluid flows. A sound-attenuating structure using layered metamaterials of cylindrical shells is proposed and verified. Numerical simulations based on the finite difference method after considering steady fluid flow in the pipe were performed. The effective wave speed and density of the fluid required to determine acoustic characteristics were calculated from the transfer matrix method. This enabled estimation of noise reduction capability. The metastructure layers were lined parallel to the pipe walls to minimize flow resistance. The effective density was negative near the resonance frequency of the layers. The transmission loss predicted for a moving fluid medium was smaller than that for a stationary medium due to boundary layer formation. The proposed method can be used to design silencers to reduce the transmitted noise in pipe systems.

Journal of Computational Acoustics

Currently known as Journal of Theoretical and Computational Acoustics (JTCA).The aim of this journal is to provide an international forum for the dissemination of the state-of-the-art information in the field of Computational Acoustics.  Topics covered by this journal include research and tutorial contributions in OCEAN ACOUSTICS (a subject of active research in relation with sonar detection and the design of noiseless ships), SEISMO-ACOUSTICS (of concern to earthquake science and engineering, and also to those doing underground prospection like searching for petroleum), AEROACOUSTICS (which includes the analysis of noise created by aircraft), COMPUTATIONAL METHODS, and SUPERCOMPUTING. In addition to the traditional issues and problems in computational methods, the journal also considers theoretical research acoustics papers which lead to large-scale scientific computations.    The journal strives to be flexible in the type of high quality papers it publishes and their format. Equally desirable are    Full papers, which should be complete and relatively self-contained original contributions with an introduction that can be understood by the broad computational acoustics community. Both rigorous and heuristic styles are acceptable. Of particular interest are papers about new areas of research in which other than strictly computational arguments may be important in establishing a basis for further developments.  Tutorial review papers, covering some of the important issues in Computational Mathematical Methods, Scientific Computing, and their applications.  Short notes, which present specific new results and techniques in a brief communication.  The journal will occasionally publish significant contributions which are larger than the usual format for regular papers. Special issues which report results of high quality workshops in related areas and monographs of significant contributions in the Series of Computational Acoustics will also be published.

The Journal of Computational Acoustics, currently known as the Journal of Theoretical and Computational Acoustics (JTCA), aims to provide an international forum for the dissemination of cutting-edge information in the field of Computational Acoustics. Topics covered by this journal include research and tutorial contributions in OCEAN ACOUSTICS (a subject of active research related to sonar detection and the design of noiseless ships), SEISMO-ACOUSTICS (pertinent to earthquake science and engineering, as well as underground prospection such as petroleum searching), AEROACOUSTICS (which involves the analysis of noise generated by aircraft), COMPUTATIONAL METHODS, and SUPERCOMPUTING. In addition to traditional issues and problems in computational methods, the journal also considers theoretical research papers in acoustics that lead to large-scale scientific computations. The journal strives to be flexible in the types and formats of high-quality papers it publishes. We welcome full papers that are complete and relatively self-contained original contributions, with introductions that can be understood by the broader computational acoustics community. Both rigorous and heuristic writing styles are acceptable. Of particular interest are papers addressing new areas of research where arguments beyond strictly computational ones may be significant in establishing a foundation for further developments. Tutorial review papers covering important issues in Computational Mathematical Methods, Scientific Computing, and their applications are also desirable. Short notes presenting specific new results and techniques in brief communications will be accepted. The journal will occasionally publish significant contributions that exceed the usual format for regular papers. Special issues reporting results from high-quality workshops in related areas and monographs of significant contributions in the Series of Computational Acoustics will also be published.
