Book cover Handbook of Engineering Acoustics

Abstract

In noise and vibration control, the most important tasks are the minimization of the excitation and of the propagation of sound in structures. Furthermore, the transfer from structure-borne sound into airborne sound – the vibration-induced radiation of sound – should be kept as low as possible.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Loads above the values given in the table should not be chosen for rubber sheets bonded between steel plates.

  2. 2.

    Analogously for rotating movements the moment impedance can be defined as the relationship between the moment of excitation and the corresponding angular velocity.

  3. 3.

    In case additional masses are applied, a rigid connection has to be guaranteed. Glued or welded connections are recommended whereas screwed connections are mostly not sufficiently stiff at high frequencies.

  4. 4.

    The loss factor related with the (relatively unimportant) longitudinal waves in metal or compound plates with anti-drone coating are around 0.01–0.1 of the loss factor related with bending waves.

  5. 5.

    Under the given assumption and if the excitation is linked with a broadband punctual load \( \tilde{F} \)(effective value the input power can be calculated by: \( P = {\tilde{F}^2}{\rm Re} \left\{ {1/Z} \right\} \)), (see Table 9.3) is valid.
