This works aims to build an equivalent model of multilayered structures with imperfect interfaces for vibro-acoustic modelling and characterization. To take into account imperfections, new interface conditions including constitutive equations, that describe the imperfections, are implemented. Once the displacement field with imperfect interfaces is obtained, the dispersion relation of the structure is derived from the equivalent model. The bending wavenumbers are then used to compute the equivalent flexural rigidity and the damping of the sandwich panel. In this paper, the methodology is applied to a sandwich panels with sliding interfaces. The equivalent parameters are computed and compared to the reference case, i.e. perfect interfaces model. The main impact of the imperfection implementation observed in the results is a shift towards the low frequency of the equivalent parameter curves.
