Sound is everywhere. Noise should not be.
The continuously evolving field of Aeroacoustics has developed rapidly with the aim of reducing noise from mechanical systems: from wings, engines, ventilation and propulsion systems to wind turbines, aircraft, vehicles and drones – while safely and effectively achieving maximum performance.
In this highly practical program you will learn how to reliably measure, verify and predict acoustic performance, using both experimental and computational techniques, and apply cutting-edge knowledge of aeroacoustics to develop noise reduction strategies.
This online program offers a Microcredential – which is an additional quality certification awarded as a digital badge that can be easily shared and verified. It consists of three career-oriented courses, which provide you with the appropriate tools, knowledge and skills needed to:
• Translate complex aeroacoustic theories into practical design applications, for the mechanical system of your choice.
• Numerically predict and experimentally validate the aeroacoustic performance of your design.
• Design, prototype and test aerodynamic components with integrated noise reduction technologies.
Main Goal
After taking this program you will be able to:
– Analyze fundamental aeroacoustic sources of noise and their aerodynamic origin.
– Evaluate, both numerically and experimentally, sources of noise in different mechanical systems.
– Discuss and decide upon the most relevant acoustic parameters to be monitored and measured for a specific aerodynamic system.
– Design a strategy to work within noise regulations without compromising aerodynamic performance.
