The vibroacoustic response of a simply supported panel excited by turbulent flow is analytically and numerically investigated. In the analytical model, the radiated sound power is described in terms of the cross spectrum density of the wall pressure field and sensitivity functions for the acoustic pressure and fluid particle velocity. For the numerical model, a hybrid approach based on the finite element method is described in which the cross spectrum of the wall pressure field is represented by a set of uncorrelated wall plane waves. Realisations of the wall pressure field are used as deterministic input loads to the panel. The structural and acoustic responses of the panel subject to turbulent boundary layer excitation are then obtained from an ensemble average of the different realisations. Analytical and numerical results are compared with experimental data measured in an anechoic wind tunnel, showing good agreement. The effect of adding stiffeners on the vibroacoustic response of the panel is also examined using the proposed numerical approach.
