Fantastic Vibroacoustic Resources and Where to Find Them
The internet is full of fantastic vibroacoustic resources. In this paper I provide descriptions and links to several reports, articles, and software that any vibroacoustician would find useful, including: Eric Ungar's humorous and insightful series 'Acoustics from A to Z', Arthur Leissa's
classic compendia of mode shapes and frequencies for plates and shells, Pete Avitable's cartoons and short articles on the basics of Experimental Modal Analysis (EMA), Lyon's classic Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) references, general guidance on vibroacoustic analysis of space structures
from the European Space Agency, and the compendium of modal density formulae from Hart and Shah. Modern software are also freely available for EMA, Finite Element (FE) structural analysis, and Boundary Element (BE) acoustic analysis. Finally, we must all remember Jack Mowry's wonderful magazine
Sound and Vibration, the archives of which are still available and contain a vast number of practical articles. Join me as I navigate the internet and show you where to find these fantastic vibroacoustic resources!
