Summary
This paper presents a finite element model for sound transmission analysis through
double sandwich panels with viscoelastic core inserted in an infinite baffle. The proposed
model is derived from a multi-field variational principle involving structural
displacement of the panels and acoustic pressure inside the fluid cavity. To solve the
vibro-acoustic problem, the plate displacements are expanded as a modal summation
of the plate's real eigenfunctions in vacuo. Similarly, the cavity pressure is expanded
as a summation over the modes of the cavity with rigid boundaries. Then, an appropriate
reduced-order model with a mode acceleration method by adding quasi-static
corrections is introduced. The structure is excited by a plane wave. The radiated
sound power is calculated by means of a discrete solution of the Rayleigh integral.
Fluid loading is neglected. Various results are presented in order to validate and illustrate
the efficiency of the proposed reduced finite element formulations.
