β¦ Synopsis
The transmission of sound energy, in the form of internally propagated higher order modes, through the walls of "fiat-oval" air conditioning ducts is investigated by means of numerical solutions to the equations of motion for the duct walls and the acoustic wave equation governing sound propagation inside the duct. A multimode sound transmission model thus established is used to provide an explanation of discrepancies between theoretical and experimental results obtained in previous work. Both predicted and measured data are given and agreement between the two is tolerably good.

Most traditional theories of speech production are currently based on plane waves. However, it is well known that, for acoustic waveguides, higher acoustical modes start to propagate and can become predominant above cut-on frequencies. This paper thus presents the transmission line matrix method, a
