Abstract

This paper discusses the prediction of transmission loss through multilayer structures with porous materials. First, a brief review of recent formulations for multilayer structures with poroelastic materials is presented. Second, the transmission loss problem is described and formulated using a coupled finite element and boundary element procedure. Issues such as poroelastic-elastic coupling, poroelastic-fluid coupling, and radiation from a poroelastic material will be addressed. The developed model is validated through numerical examples. Its advantages and limitations are discussed. Finally, typical results showing the vibroacoustic effects of several parameters such as the multilayer configuration, the types of porous materials, and the mounting conditions are presented.
