An experimental-numerical study on the vibro-acoustic characterization of honeycomb lightweight panels
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lightweight components are widely used in several technology sectors such as in transport and machine design and an appropriate knowledge about their vibro-acoustic performance characteristics is desired already in early design stages. Although they are able to offer a highly attractive weight saving, lightweight structures often exhibit unsatisfactory dynamic, i.e. noise and vibration, reduction skills. Among different indices commonly used within the research field, in this work the focus is on the acoustic Insertion Loss (IL) evaluation to describe the vibro-acoustic behaviour of lightweight panels. A simple test set-up is developed and used in order to experimentally investigate the transmission properties of different panels. Furthermore, several numerical studies allow the construction of an updated numerical model which can be used to predict the vibro-acoustic characteristics of lightweight structures mounted in the test set-up.

Transmission suite design for vibro-acoustic characterization of lightweight panelsEquation
This paper concerns with the design of an acoustic cavity (transmission suite) for the vibro-acoustic characterization of lightweight panels. This setup has the big advantage of being a small (1150x984x820 mm) which allows the identification of the studied behaviour for both structureand airborne excitation, on panels of different size (from A4 to A2) and thickness (up to 5cm). Particular effor...

In this paper a numerical model to study the vibro-acoustic behavior of a laminated plate backed by a poroelastic foam layer is developed. Such approach consists on a coupled mitigation strategy aiming either mechanical vibration suppression or acoustic attenuation as well. The laminated plate model consists of fiber laminae with interleaved viscoelastic layers in standard constrained or integr...

In this paper an experimental-numerical approach is presented to tackle the vibro-acoustic characterization of composite sandwich structures. A novel experimental setup allows for fast and comprehensive understanding of the NVH behaviour of composite sandwich panels. This information can then be further exploited in numerical model updating and design tools for optimized solutions. Experimental...
