Calculation of bulkhead vibrations in a supported shell simulating a plane fuselage

Noise from external sources penetrates a plane cabin through the board construction in several ways. They include direct penetration through loose-fiber layers and indirect penetration through the attachment points of interior panels to transverse ribs (bulkheads). The analytical method of calculating vibrations of an orthogonally supported shell (developed by us earlier) makes it possible to correctly calculate bulkhead vibrations. As a result, noise penetration into the cabin through the attachment points of interior panels can be determined analytically. The first part of the solution to this problem is presented (i.e., the relations and examples of calculating bulkhead vibrations upon point excitation of the shell and excitation by pressure fluctuations of the turbulent boundary layer are given).
