RESUMO

Abstract This paper applies acoustic analysis of Sound Transmission Loss (STL) through infinite Functionally Graded (FG) thick plate employing Hyperbolic Shear Deformation Theory (HSDT). The procedure for applying a FG plate is followed by considering the material properties are changed continually based on power-law distribution of the materials in terms of volume fraction. The main benefit of HSDT can be justified knowing the fact that, it uses parabolic transverse shear strain across thickness direction. Therefore, no need to enter the extra effect of shear correction coefficient factor. Besides, the displacement field is extended as a combination of polynomial as well as hyperbolic tangent function by neglecting the effect of thickness stretching. Furthermore, the equations of motion are obtained employing Hamilton’s Principle. To provide an analytical solution based on HSDT, equations of motion are combined with acoustic wave equations. Moreover, some comparisons are made with the known theoretical and experimental results available in literature to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the current formulation. These comparisons reveal an excellent agreement. Consequently, some configurations are presented to demonstrate which parameters appear to be effective to improve the behavior of STL including the effects of modulus of elasticity and density in the thickness direction with respect to various power-law distributions.
