Hence, this work deals with the presentation of an optimal design of laminated composite sandwich marine structures subjected to underwater explosion. The optimization process is performed using a genetic algorithm (GA), associated with the finite element method (FEM) for the structural analysis. In this optimization procedure, sandwich composite panel finite element model is built up, then the coupled acoustic–structural arithmetic from the widely used calculation program of the finite element “ABAQUS” is used to simulate and analyze the transient dynamic response of a sandwich composite panel that experiences loading by an acoustic pressure shock wave resulting from an underwater explosion “UNDEX”.
