Sensitivity analysis of coupled acoustic-structural systems under non-stationary random excitations based on adjoint variable method

Sensitivity analysis of coupled acoustic-structural systems under non-stationary random excitations is investigated in this paper. The combined method of direct differentiation method (DDM) and pseudo excitation method (PEM) in previous work is computationally expensive for problems with large-scale design variables. To circumvent this difficulty, a fast sensitivity analysis method integrating the adjoint variable method (AVM) and PEM for...
