Abstract

This paper investigates the acoustic radiation characteristics of reinforced laminated cylindrical shell structures in the medium-low frequency range (1~1000 Hz) of aircrafts, submarines, and deepwater thrusters by combining simulation analysis and experimental testing. The research focuses on reinforced laminated plates, where experimental setup is established to measure structural modal parameters and structural acoustic power, and a finite element model is developed to verify the reliability of the finite element modeling method through comparison with experimental and simulation results. Simultaneously, a finite element model of the reinforced laminated cylindrical shell structure is established, and finite element simulation analysis is conducted to investigate the effects of different reinforcement methods, reinforcement quantities, reinforcement lengths, and reinforcement thicknesses on the acoustic radiation characteristics of the structure. The results indicate that in the frequency range of 1~1000 Hz, ribbed reinforcement exhibits better performance in reducing structural noise radiation compared to longitudinal reinforcement. With the increase in reinforcement quantity and thickness, the structural acoustic radiation decreases. Meanwhile, with the increase in reinforcement length, the overall sound power level of the structure shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing.
