The problem can be found in any ABAQUS Benchmark manual: Section
1.10.2, and is often known as the "acid-test" within the
structural-acoustic community.

A small description of the problem follows.

The Abaqus/Standard Model:

This problem involves the steady-state vibration of a point-loaded
spherical shell coupled to an acoustic fluid that fills its interior.
It is modeled using axisymmetric shell and acoustic elements. The
closed form solution of Stepanishen and Cox (2000) is used for
validation of the analysis. The basis of the coupled
acoustic-structural vibration capability in Abaqus is described in
"Coupled acoustic-structural medium analysis," Section 2.9.1 of the
Abaqus Theory Manual, and "Acoustic, shock, and coupled
acoustic-structural analysis," Section 6.9.1 of the Abaqus Analysis
User's Manual.

Problem description

The model is a semicircular shell and fluid mesh of radius 2.286 m. A
point load on the symmetry axis of magnitude 1.0 N is applied to the
shell. The shells are 0.0254 m in thickness and have a Young's modulus
of 206.8 GPa, a Poisson's ratio of 0.3, and a mass density of 7800.0
kg/m^{3}. The acoustic fluid has a density, of 1000 kg/m^{3} and a bulk
modulus, of 2.25 GPa. The response of the coupled system is calculated
for frequencies ranging from 100 to 1000 Hz in 5 Hz increments. There
are two different finite element meshes used: one with explicitly
defined acoustic-structural interaction elements and one that uses the
*TIE option. The former model consists of 220 SAX1 elements surrounding
a mesh of 15848 ACAX4 elements. Coupling is effected using 220 ASI2A
elements. The latter model uses 80 SAX2 elements surrounding a mesh of
965 ACAX8 elements. For this mesh, coupling is effected using the *TIE
option to generate the acoustic-structural interaction elements
internally.

A dummy part is included in the models to ensure that the analytical
solution appears in the output database. This part consists of a single
point mass, uncoupled from the model described above, with a
displacement boundary condition on degree of freedom 1. This imposed
displacement uses an amplitude table consisting of the Stepanishen/Cox
analytical solution for the drive point admittance.

The ANSYS Model & the Higher Dimensional Coupled System Matrices:

We generate the required matrices in ANSYS by reading through the
ABAQUS documentation and preparing the relevant finite element mesh in
ANSYS. This particular model was done with ANSYS V10/V11. A detailed
description can be found in and R. S. Puri, D Morrey, J. L. Cipolla
(2007) and R. S. Puri (2008). In the ANSYS model, we sweep from
100-1000Hz in 1Hz increments as opposed to 5Hz increments in the ABAQUS
model. This is simply for ease of comparison with analytical solutions
- since we have closed form solutions at every 1Hz. increments for the
undamped case.

loading condition/location & the sparsity plots of the coupled
stiffness and mass matrices are given at

For the undamped model, the matrices can be found in BM_Uda.zip in the
Attachments section.

For damped models, we have three sub test cases: Low Damping, Moderate
Damping, High Damping.  The higher dimensional matrices can be found in
BM_Ld.zip ; BM_Md.zip ; BM_Hd.zip in the Attachments sections (see
"contd.." sub page also).

Matrix Extraction Information:

[1.0] Undamped Matrices:

BM_Uda.zip : No issues to report. You should be able to generate the
plots in Figure: 3 and Figure: 4 with minimal effort.

[1.1] Damped Matrices:

BM_<Ld/Md/Hd>.zip : No issues with Mass and Stiffness Matrices. The
damping matrices for the weakly non-linear test cases are assembled
from the total Dynamic matrix in ANSYS. That is, ANSYS writes the
dynamic, coupled structural-acoustic "supermatrix" as follows:

[A] {x} = F ;                                       -- Equation (1)

where, [A] is the dynamic "super matrix" which is computed as follows:

[A]  =  -Omega^{2} [M] + i*Omega [E] + [K]  ;       -- Equation (2)

which is directly written to the ANSYS FULL file. It follows from
above that the damping matrix can be "back calculated" by using the
following relationship:

[E] = [Ai]  / Omega  ;                              -- Equation (3)

where,  [Ai] represents the imaginary part of the dynamic coupled
structural-acoustic "super matrix".

Unfortunately, at this moment, there is no other direct way to extract
the damping matrix including linearly varying damping.

Shortly speaking, the damping matrix [E] for the coupled
structural-acoustic system can be extracted by dividing the imaginary
part of the "super matrix" with a high enough frequency.

Remarks on Matrix Extraction for Damped Test Cases:


For the damped cases, the [E] matrices for the benchmark models were
extracted at around 1000Hz, which is close to the end frequency of the
analysis range.

This above extraction procedure sometimes results in a "non-symmetric"
damping matrix rather than a symmetric one, which can be attributed to
the very small "round-off" differences at different frequencies. Note
also that this "unsymmetricity" is not always the case. In many cases
(e.g. ones with lower dimension), the damping matrices are indeed
symmetric.

Saying that, we note that this should not yield any issues/differences
in the dimension reduction process.

Please let me know if you do encounter any difficulties or questions
on the matrices/reduction process. Results for the linearly damped
cases can be found in R. S. Puri (2008).
