In this paper, the transmission loss (TL) of a thick-walled shell under obliquely plane incident wave is investigated considering three dimensional (3-D) theory of elasticity. Governing equations of the thick shell have been derived in radial, axial, and circumferential directions. Then, Helmholtz decomposition is used to solve the equations. Therefore, the displacement field is considered in terms of Lame potential functions. A comparison of the present method results with those obtained from classical shell theory (CST), first and third-order shear deformation theories (FSDT, TSDT) for this special case of the thin shell indicates an excellent agreement. Moreover, the comparison of present method with these theories for a thick shell having R/h¼20 reveals good conformity at low frequencies. However, at the high frequencies these classical and higher order shell theories encounter insufficient accuracies as a result of increasing of the rotational terms as well as shear wave effects. The results of the present method show that with thickening the shell, the critical frequency is getting closer to the ring frequency. Consequently, the masslow controlled region is going to be completely removed which leads to significant enhancement of the TLs. Finally, the obtained numerical results demonstrate that the transmission loss is considerably decreased at the frequencies greater than the resonance frequency by increasing Mach number of the external mean flow.
