Chapter 4: One-Way Acoustic Coupling

The Ansys Mechanical application enables you to apply velocities from an Motion analysis as loads in a downstream Harmonic Acoustics analysis. Towards that goal, in the Ansys Workbench project schematic Solution cell of an Motion system can be linked to the Setup cell of a Harmonic Acoustics system. This enables Workbench to perform a Fourier transformation to convert time varying data to frequency varying velocities, then transfer structural velocities and map them on the acoustic mesh.
