“…The vibration of a uniform waveguide through the WFE technique was investigated in [32,33]. The WFE method has recently found applications in predicting the vibroacoustic and dynamic performance of composite panels and shells [34,35,36,37,38,39,40] , with pressurized shells [41,42] and complex periodic structures [43,44,45,46] having been investigated. The variability of acoustic transmission through layered structures [47,48], as well as wave steering effects in anisotropic composites [49] have been modelled through the same methodology .…”
