Vibro-acoustic behavior of a multilayered viscoelastic sandwich plate under a thermal environment:

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present numerical simulation studies on the vibration and acoustic response characteristics of a multilayered viscoelastic sandwich plate in a thermal environment, where the critical buckling temperature and vibration response were obtained using finite element method while sound radiation characteristics are obtained using boundary element method.
Abstract: This article presents numerical simulation studies on the vibration and acoustic response characteristics of a multilayered viscoelastic sandwich plate in a thermal environment. Initially the critical buckling temperature is obtained followed by free and forced vibration analyses considering the pre-stress due to the imposed thermal environment in the plate. The vibration response predicted is then used to compute the sound radiation. The critical buckling temperature and vibration response are obtained using finite element method while sound radiation characteristics are obtained using boundary element method. It is found that resonant amplitude of both the vibration and acoustic response decreases with increase in temperature. The influence of core thickness, number of layers, type of thermal field, and type of viscoelastic core material on vibration response sound radiation characteristics are studied in detail.

TL;DR: In this paper, a finite element displacement analysis of multilayer sandwich beams and plates, each with n stiff layers and n−1 weak cores, is presented, where each layer has individual orthotropic properties of its own and the bending rigidities of the stiff layers are taken into account while direct stresses in cores are neglected in the analysis.
Abstract: A finite element displacement analysis of multilayer sandwich beams and plates, each with n stiff layers and n−1 weak cores, is presented. Each layer of the sandwich structure may have individual orthotropic properties of its own and the bending rigidities of the stiff layers are taken into account while direct stresses in cores are neglected in the analysis. The condition of common shear angle for all cores, which has been used by several authors is not implied in the formulation. Several examples on bending problems have been solved using lower-order elements and the accuracy of the results has been shown to be excellent. Two higher-order elements have also been developed but have not been found to yield much better results. The free vibration problems of multilayer sandwich structures have also been solved, and good accuracy is demonstrated.

TL;DR: In this paper, a variational model for a laminated plate consisting of an arbitrary number of fiber-reinforced composite material layers has been developed, using the variational principles.
Abstract: Governing equations of motion for a laminated plate consisting of an arbitrary number of fiber-reinforced composite material layers have been developed, using the variational principles. Each layer was considered to be of an orthotropic material with its directional elastic properties depending on the fiber orientation. The extension, bending, inplane shear, and transverse shear deformations in each separate layer were considered. The analytical results were verified with the literature-reported data. A study of the optimum fiber orientations in a criss-cross laminated plate has shown that different fiber orientations lead to the maximum frequency and the maximum damping. For a cross-ply laminated plate, the maximum flexural frequency ratio has been obtained for large aspect ratio plates and with large values of elastic modular ratio E11/E22. The maximum loss factor for a cross-ply plate was obtained with square plate and with small values of E11/E22. 15 references.

Abstract: This paper presents numerical simulation studies on the vibration and acoustic response characteristics of an isotropic rectangular plate in a thermal environment using commercial finite element softwares ANSYS and SYSNOISE. First the critical buckling temperature is obtained, followed by modal and harmonic analyses considering prestress due to the thermal field in the plate, with the critical buckling temperature as a parameter. The vibration response predicted is then used to compute the sound radiation. It is found that the displacement response of the structure increases with an increase in temperature for all boundary conditions. The overall sound radiation of the plate marginally increases with an increase in temperature for all boundary conditions when the temperature approaches the critical buckling temperature although there is a sharp increase in sound power levels.
