Abstract

Advanced aerospace structures are subjected to extremely harsh working environment, including of mechanical, acoustic, thermal, and aerodynamic loads. These combined loads can make the structures exhibit complex response, which has already attracted increasing concern in the design of advanced aerospace structures. To tackle the problem, a finite element model (FEM) by discretizing the theoretical differential equation is established to calculate the dynamic response of thin-walled structures under combined thermal and acoustic loads. The numerical analysis indicates that three types of nonlinear responses of the thin plate under combined thermal-acoustic loads are obtained, and the mechanism of snap-through is revealed through two ways: thermal buckling analysis and thermal modal analysis. which can be used to explain the nonlinear response characteristics.
