β¦ Synopsis
Two coupled beams were excited with an impulse at one end of the source beam, and the response monitored at the remote end of the receiver beam. The response was predicted with an exact wave solution and compared with two approximate solutions: a first wave prediction and a transient statistical energy solution. With a numerical parameter study the peak velocity, peak energy and rise time to peak energy were compared with modal overlap, used as the independent variable. The applicability of these two approximate methods was defined in terms of modal overlap. The approximate methods were found to be equally accurate for both longitudinal and flexural waves.

Energy flow analysis (EFA) is an analytical tool for prediction of the frequency-averaged vibrational response of built-up structures at high audible frequencies. The procedure is based on two developments; first, the derivation of the partial differential equations that govern the propagation of en
The vibrational energy flows occurring between a pair of unequal rectangular membranes coupled along a mutual edge are investigated. Since the membranes studied have different properties and form an L shape when coupled this calculation may not be carried out directly, instead requiring some form of
