It means, for example, that incoming energy concentrated in a bending wave (out-of-plane vibration) can be split in transmitted energy of other wave types: bending, quasi-longitudinal or transverse shear waves. The goal of the research is to provide simple formulas to include this phenomenon in a Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) model through the Coupling Loss Factor (CLF) coe cients. A large number of simulations of a population of junctions is generated by means of a numerical model. Afterwards, this data is post-processed in order to obtain the Transmission Loss (TL) between the di erent wave types by means of a procedure that mimics the Experimental SEA (it is ESEA with some modifications because in the numerical simulations, the internal loss factor is imposed a priori). Each junction is characterised by means of a parameter that minimises the scattering of the TL data with respect to the approximation formula. Some application examples to building structures are shown.", }
