Abstract

structural acoustics naval engineering acoustic radiators underwater sound drag noise abatement acoustic noise
As the speed and power of surface ships rise, the reduction of ship acoustic signature and self-noise is becoming an important task of naval engineering. A significant decrease in underwater noise can be achieved by using gaseous layers on the ship hull. Two mechanisms for sound radiation from low-drag air-lubricated hulls are discussed.
