This study collects all of the existent papers in the field of acoustic transmission across multilayered plate constructions. Herewith, a comprehensive source is proposed wherein approximately 410 references are reviewed and described from the first [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text]. In the first part, in addition to the presentation of a complete explanation about the importance of the acoustic analysis of these structures, appropriate formulations are also provided. Furthermore, an overview of the thematic correspondent is carried out. Since the type of material used in these constructions can be very important in sound insulation, the significance of this subject is remarked. The papers are then classified based on their acoustic excitation fields containing plane wave, diffuse, random, and point source. After analyzing the research approaches according to different environmental properties, the articles are ordered based on their boundaries as finite and infinite. To present reliable outcomes, it is necessary to investigate a proper theory proportional to the structure’s thickness. Herewith, this issue is also discussed in detail. The review is also expanded to focus on the different vibroacoustic solutions. Before concluding remarks, the authors' research works are presented wherein either optimization algorithms or control techniques improve the acoustic performance of these structures.
