Abstract

Problems of acoustic wave propagation in a plane wave guide whose walls are assumed to be undeformed with the exception of a section of finite length whose bending is described by the thin plate theory equations in the framework of the Kirchhoff-Love hypotheses are considered. The sound-proofing characteristics of the wave guide described and the stability of the forced oscillations of the system considered are investigated. Formulations of the problem of active vibroacoustic protection and the problem for the peristaltic pump are given. Soundproofing in wave guides has been considered in a number of papers, a fairly complete review of which is given in [1].
