摘要
Abstract Here we propose a detailed protocol to enable an accelerated inverse design of acoustic coatings for underwater sound attenuation application by coupling Machine Learning and an optimization algorithm with Finite Element Models (FEM). The FEMs were developed to obtain the realistic performance of the polyurethane (PU) acoustic coatings with embedded cylindrical voids. The frequency dependent viscoelasticity of PU matrix is considered in FEM models to substantiate the impact on absorption peak associated with the embedded cylinders at low frequencies. This has been often ignored in previous studies of underwater acoustic coatings, where usually a constant frequency-independent complex modulus was used for the polymer matrix. The key highlight of the proposed optimization framework for the inverse design lies in its potential to tackle the computational hurdles of the FEM when calculating the true objective function. This is done by replacing the FEM with an efficiently computable surrogate model developed through a Deep Neural Network. This enhances the speed of predicting the absorption coefficient by a factor of $$4.5 \times 10^3$$ 4.5 × 10 3 compared to FEM model and is capable of rapidly providing a well-performing, sub-optimal solution in an efficient way. A significant, broadband, low-frequency attenuation is achieved by optimally configuring the layers of cylindrical voids. This is accomplished by accommodating attenuation mechanisms, including Fabry–P $$\acute{e}$$ e ´ rot resonance and Bragg scattering of the layers of voids. Furthermore, the proposed protocol enables the inverse and targeted design of underwater acoustic coatings through accelerating the exploration of the vast design space compared to time-consuming and resource-intensive conventional trial-and-error forward approaches.
