Abstract
Similar to many new engineering ideas that are actually interdisciplinary subjects, magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) structures also need accurate ways of describing their structural behaviors. Based on nonlocal elasticity theory, the present article investigates the vibroacoustic behavior of a hollow multilayer cylindrical nanoshell where the core layer is made of isotropic functionally graded material (FGM) and other layers are made of MEE materials. The proposed system also is subjected to combined loads which contain a plane sound wave, the initial external electric and magnetic loads, and external mean airflow. The displacement field of structure is described using the third-order shear deformation assumption (TSDA). The derivation of vibroacoustic equations in the form of coupled relations is realized by implementing Hamilton's principle. The material properties of FGM core layer are supposed to vary along the in-plane and thickness directions based on the power-law model. The final objective is to analyze the sound transmission loss (STL) characteristics of the structure and inspect the accuracy of the developed method against existing data followed by comparing the results in terms of geometric and acoustic parameters. The obtained results and the described method can be used advantageously to better optimize such structures by choosing appropriate initial electric and magnetic potentials, flow Mach number, nonlocal parameter, material gradient index, incident angles.
