The prediction of structure-borne noise transmission in large welded ship structures is required, in order to design maritime vessels with greater ship power and reduced weight, without increasing the noise levels. The aim of this project is to develop a hybrid approach for structural dynamic analyses using an analytical waveguide method and Statistical Energy Analysis. The theoretical estimation and associated experimental measurement of the SEA parameters (modal density, coupling and internal loss factors) form the basis for the hybrid approach. The outcomes will result in improved predictive techniques for dynamic analyses of large complex resonant structures.
