Abstract

The noise transmission of aeronautical panels is an important phase of the design process of an airplane. In this work an analytical Navier-type solution, based on higher-order layer-wise shell models, is proposed for the analysis of the sound insulation of laminated panels. The considered multilayered structures are laminated with cross-ply composite layers embedded with interlaminar viscoelastic sheets. The use of the soft interlayers permits to have a passive insulation effect in the study of the sound transmission. In order to take into account the frequency depedent properties of a realistic viscoelastic layer, the damping behavior is modeled through a fractional derivative Zener model. The Rayleigh integral method is used to extrapolate the acoustic indicators for the sound transmission analysis. Some results are presented to validate the efficiency of the present approach, comparing the present solutions with others taken from the literature.
