The effect of structure on the vibration response was explored for four piano soundboards
with different but commonly adopted structures. The vibration response was obtained using …

This study presents a visual model for analyzing the vibration modes of piano soundboards
by combining the tools of finite element analysis and computer-aided design. Based on the …

This paper deals with the development and validation of a finite element numerical model of
a grand piano soundboard. The most important details of the manufacturing process are …

This paper compares the sound power and vibration levels for two different soundboards for
upright pianos. One of them is made of laminated spruce and the other of solid spruce (tone …

The low frequency broadband vibrational behavior of a piano soundboard is considered.
Attention is focused on the ability of finite element models and analytical models to predict …

This paper illustrates the first part of a research project aimed at developing and validating a
numerical model of the vibro-acoustic behaviour of a grand piano soundboard, to be used …

This thesis is aimed at developing and validating a numerical model of the vibro-acoustic
behaviour of a grand piano soundboard, to be used by piano makers as a tool to support the …

The vibrations of the soundboard of an upright piano in playing condition are investigated. It
is first shown that the linear part of the response is at least 50 dB above its nonlinear …

Study of dynamic behavior of grand piano soundboard and especially study of influence of
construction, disposition, and material properties on modal properties (eg natural …

A soundboard, as an important resonance component of a piano has been continuously
studied in the past several decades. It is known that the variation of mass distribution on a …
