Actran Diffuse Sound Field (DSF) demo

Actran, from MSC Software, is an acoustics simulation software, designed originally for predicting noise within and around vehicles such as cars and aircraft. One interesting capability, developed with a Space industry client, is the ability to simulate the effects of a diffuse sound field such as what is experienced by the payload during a rocket launch. Historically this random acoustic loading has been simulated using pressure loads in a frequency response finite element analysis (FEA), but this ignores the effect of shortening wavelengths as the frequency of the sound increases, leading to conservative designs. The capability in Actran can be used by non-experts via a simple wizard tool as demonstrated in this short video. MSC Software's Simulation Portfolio - Access Actran through MSC One All these Actran capabilities are included within the flexible MSC One licensing scheme (expanded product software solution that lets you take advantage of Sinda, Nastran, Adams, Marc, scFLOW, scSTREAM, and many more MSC Software products.) Acoustic simulation is a complex field, so if you’d like to discuss your requirements in more detail and to understand if Actran could help you, please get in touch with us or send us your requirements. Using our 20+ years’ experience in providing MSC solutions to the UK market, we will work with you to make sure you get the right packaging to minimise your costs.
