Sandwich panels, comprising face sheets enclosing a core, are increasingly common structural elements in a variety of applications, including aircraft fuselages and flight surfaces, vehicle panels, lightweight enclosures, and bulkheads. The design flexibility associated with such composite structures provides significant opportunities for tailoring the structure to the load and dynamic response requirements for the particular application. Design flexibility encompasses the details of the face sheets and the core. This paper deals with the numerical optimization of different sandwich configurations for the purposes of achieving reduced structural acoustic response. Laminated face sheets and core geometries, comprising honeycomb and truss-like structures, are considered. The relative importance of the mass and stiffening properties of the core and face sheets are discussed. The optimization work is carried out using commercial codes. Benefits and limits of using an optimization algorithm based on gradient methods are highlighted.

Conventional metallic sandwich panels are widely used for noise control owing to their good noise control capabilities and excellent mechanical strength-to-weight ratio property. Furthermore, sound-absorbing products consisting of glass or mineral fiber materials are generally filled into the sandwich structures to lower the vibration response in resonance frequency and to enhance the structural noise attenuation capacity. In the present study, a fiber-reinforced graphite material is used as an alternative to its metallic counterparts. Moreover, a wood-based renewable absorption material is used as the absorption material and is filled into the sandwich structural core. The vibro-acoustic characteristics of the panel with such a design are numerically investigated using Actran. The findings of the research indicate that the proposed sandwich structure achieves advanced low-frequency noise control performance in comparison with other conventional metallic sandwich panels. Approximately 7 dB increase in sound transmission loss in the audible-frequency range is achieved in addition to a reduced panel weight and more stable vibration with reduced amplitude. The existing data available in the literature are employed for validating and illustrating the accuracy and reliability of the proposed approach.

Sandwich panels comprising face sheets enclosing a core are increasingly common structural elements in a variety of applications, including aircraft fuselages, flight surfaces, vehicle panels, lightweight enclosures, and bulkheads. This paper presents the optimization of various innovative sandwich configurations for minimization of their structural-acoustic response. Laminated face sheets and core geometries comprising honeycomb and trusslike structures are considered. The design flexibility associated with the class of considered composite structures and with truss-core configurations provides the opportunity of tailoring the structure to the load and dynamic response requirements of a particular application. The results demonstrate how the proper selection of selected key parameters can achieve effective reduction of the radiated sound power and how the identified optimal configurations can achieve noise reduction over different frequency ranges and for various source configurations.
