Abstract
Based on the effective medium theory as well as the three-dimensional viscoelastic theory, a semi-analytical model of the three-dimensional underwater vibration and acoustic radiation with cavity-type stiffened plate structures covered with acoustic coatings is established to solve the issues related to underwater vibration and acoustic radiation calculation of the stiffened plate and shell structure with complex acoustic coatings. By comparing the far-field acoustic radiation characteristics of the proposed semi-analytical model and the finite element numerical model, this research verifies the validity and accuracy of the proposed model. On such a basis, this research preliminarily investigates the coupling effect exerted by stiffeners and parent plates in stiffened plates as well as the vibroacoustic characteristics of acoustic coatings, thereby providing a valuable idea for the prediction of vibroacoustic characteristics concerning underwater structures.
