Abstract

This paper discusses the modeling of the transmission loss of curved sandwich-composite panels with attached noise control treatments using both analytical and numerical methods. Special attention is devoted to the modeling using the Transfer Matrix Method (TMM) and Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) of these structures in various mounting conditions (single wall and double wall) under diffuse acoustic field excitation with a systematic comparison with an efficient FEM/VBEM formulation of the problem. Classically, in SEA models the sound package is unwrapped and the TMM is used to calculate its effects in terms of added damping, absorption, and insertion loss. Examples are presented to examine the validity of this practice and demonstrate its range of applicability and usefulness.
