Accurate noise prediction models are crucial for designing marine applications that meet customer expectations for on-board noise levels. Whether it's a large cruise ship or a small yacht, noise is a critical factor that must be addressed during the design phase.
Exterior noise generated by propellers, hull radiation, or mufflers can be a major challenge for marine applications. This noise must be limited for discretion or environmental reasons. Designers must use advanced modeling and simulation tools to accurately predict the exterior noise levels and identify design modifications to reduce noise levels.
Interior noise is also a major concern for crew and passenger comfort. The interior noise is typically a result of engine and machinery noise, as well as noise from water and air flow around the hull. The interior noise levels must be controlled to ensure a comfortable environment for the crew and passengers.
We use advanced modeling and simulation tools to predict noise levels for different operating conditions and identify design modifications to reduce noise levels. Our engineers can also design noise control solutions to address interior noise challenges, including noise barriers, damping materials, and noise-cancelling technologies.
