✦ Synopsis

By use of power flow techniques an assessment is made of the effect of damping on the vibrational energy of concrete plates which form a T-junction.

The vibrational energies are predicted from knowledge of the loss factors, coupling loss factors, and radiation loss factors which were assessed theoretically and experimentally. Theoretical predictions are compared with measurements.

It is seen that a damping layer, as well as reducing the bending wave energy on the plate to which it is applied, will, to a lesser extent, reduce that on other plates which form a common junction. The magnitude of this effect is predicted and measured.

Both modal expansion and travelling wave methods are commonly used for predicting the response and vibrational energy flow in structures. They describe the same structural wave motion problem from different viewpoints. In this paper, energy flows carried by the torsional and flexural waves in beam s

There is increasing evidence that moments are signi®cant contributors in machine induced structure-borne sound. Omission of these components in prediction can therefore lead to an underestimate of total power in some cases, although it is recognised that considering all transmission paths in predict

The analysis of structure-borne sound transmission is obscured by the complicated nature of the dynamic interaction between source and receiver at each contact point. There is little measured data because of the practical dif®culties in directly measuring forces and moments at the contacts. This is
