摘要: 针对传统水下声学标准体布放难度大、声学适配性不足的问题, 文中设计了一种水下轻量化二十面浮体-杆组合结构仿球形散射体。该结构通过弧形浮力单元与杆-球骨架构建近似球形散射界面, 采用透水式设计实现浮力自平衡, 在保持球形散射特性的同时提升工程布放实用性。同时建立了声散射特性的分频段数值模型, 开展声散射计算: 低频段采用声固耦合有限元法(FEM)、中高频段采用迭代物理声学(IPA)方法, 分析了声散射强度随声波频率和入射方位的变化规律, 揭示了路径差干涉现象形成机制。通过试验验证了所提建模方法及研究结论的准确性,试验结果表明, 该仿球形散射体平均目标强度较同尺寸刚性球提高约3.87 dB, 并表现出多散射体相干干涉特征, 可作为水下声学标校载体, 为水下无人系统试验标定与目标声散射特性测试提供参考。Abstract: To address the difficulties in deployment and insufficient acoustic adaptability of traditional underwater acoustic standard targets, a lightweight quasi-spherical scatterer with icosahedral buoy-rod composite structure was proposed. Curved buoyant units and a rod-sphere framework formed an approximate spherical scattering interface, and a permeable design enabled buoyancy self-balance, which improved deployment feasibility while preserving spherical scattering characteristics. A frequency-segmented numerical model for acoustic scattering was established for calculation. The fluid-structure coupled finite element method(FEM) was adopted for low-frequency analysis, while the iterative physical acoustics(IPA) was employed at medium and high frequencies. The variations in acoustic scattering strength with acoustic frequency and incident direction were numerically analyzed, and the formation mechanism of path-difference interference was clarified. Experimental measurements were further carried out to validate the proposed modeling method and the corresponding conclusions. The results show that the average target strength of the proposed quasi-spherical scatterer is approximately 3.87 dB higher than that of a rigid sphere with the same radius. Meanwhile, the structure exhibits coherent interference characteristics caused by multiple scattering components. Therefore, it can serve as an underwater acoustic calibration target and provide a useful reference for experimental calibration, acoustic scattering analysis, and testing of unmanned underwater systems.
