Abstract
This work offers a comprehensive investigation into the vibration band gaps of periodically rib-stiffened plates, incorporating the effects of fluid–structure interaction (FSI). By coupling the Mindlin plate theory with Timoshenko beam theory, the proposed model enables flexible arrangements of ribs within the plate structure, enhancing its design versatility. The inertial effects of the surrounding fluid are rigorously accounted for through an augmented mass matrix, which includes Bloch periodic boundary conditions, providing a robust framework for capturing the FSI phenomena. Numerical validations confirm the accuracy of both the rib-stiffened plate model in the absence of fluid and the FSI-integrated model. A systematic exploration of vibration band gaps is conducted, emphasizing the influence of various rib configurations under fluid–structure interaction. Detailed parametric analysis of orthogonally rib-stiffened plates reveals that specific rib designs play a crucial role in tuning the band gaps, offering valuable insights for optimizing vibro-acoustic performance in engineering applications.
期刊介绍:
Mechanics of Materials is a forum for original scientific research on the flow, fracture, and general constitutive behavior of geophysical, geotechnical and technological materials, with balanced coverage of advanced technological and natural materials, with balanced coverage of theoretical, experimental, and field investigations. Of special concern are macroscopic predictions based on microscopic models, identification of microscopic structures from limited overall macroscopic data, experimental and field results that lead to fundamental understanding of the behavior of materials, and coordinated experimental and analytical investigations that culminate in theories with predictive quality.
