The goal of this pro ject is to explore the role that fluid coupling plays on the vibration of an
ob ject, and to investigate how one can model such effects. We want to determine whether …

The radiation of sound from geometrically simple vibrating structures into stationary fluids is
well understood. However, to date, very few investigations have considered the effects that a …

principles, he refers to a variety of things like the Santa Ana winds, the Fender Stratocaster,
the Internal Revenue Service, the eye of a fly, the head of a whale, and the Grateful Dead …

The underlying methods are described including the improved coupled fluid-structure modal
analysis and the computation of the radiated sound power. Next an overview of the tool's …

The sound radiation from a vibrating structure in water is investigated. The radiation
depends on fluid boundaries, the geometry of structure, and associated mode shapes …

Insight into the behavior of many practical sound sources, such as vibrating surfaces, jet
flows, and combustion, can be obtained by considering elementary sources. This chapter …

Over the years I have written many tutorials on vibroacoustics. This tutorial summarizes
much of the material in those articles, starting with structural flexural vibrations and how they …

This paper presents an integral formulation for prediction of sound radiation from a vibrating
body in motion. The formulation consists of volume and surface integrals. The volume …

Featured Application A real-time physical model sound effect that can replicate the sound of
a number of swinging objects, such as a sword, baseball bat and golf club, has great …
