RESUMO

Abstract The main aim of this paper is to employ an extension of two-variable Refined Plate Theory (RPT2) to determine Sound Transmission Loss (STL) across laminated composite plate in contrast to external excitation. It should be noted that RPT2 known as a second type of Refined Plate Theory which includes the extension term in displacement field. To achieve this goal, firstly, the lateral displacements are expanded by considering three parts, including shear, bending and extension term to provide an analytical model based on two-variable Refined Plate Theory without considering the effect of the shear correction coefficient in governing equations. Secondly, vibro-acoustic analysis is administered by incorporating the laminated composite plate equation beside the acoustic wave equation, simultaneously. Consequently, the power transmission through the structure is specified due to a plane sound wave. Beside, in order to illustrate the accuracy of the present formulation (RPT2), the obtained STL is compared with those available in literature. However, the application of present study (RPT2) is clarified in the acoustical designs due to presenting more precise results in comparison with Classical Plate Theory. Eventually, the numerical results are achieved to determine the influences of various properties on STL.
