String instruments are complex mechanical vibrating systems, in terms of both structure and
fluid–structure interaction. Here, a review study of the modeling and simulation of stringed …

In the context of aeronautics, automotive and construction applications, the design of light
multilayer plates with optimized vibroacoustical damping and isolation performances …

A time-domain global modeling of a grand piano is presented. The string model includes
internal losses, stiffness, and geometrical nonlinearity. The hammer-string interaction is …

From a constructive and functional point of view, the violin body is a structure with thin walls
having the role of amplifying the musical sounds and consists of an arched top and back …

Strong modal behavior can produce undesirable acoustical effects, particularly in recording
studios and other small rooms. Although closed-form solutions exist to predict modes in …

Abstract The High Resolution Wavevector Analysis (HRWA) is presented and its application
illustrated. Extending the High Resolution Wavenumber Analysis method [1] to 2D signals, it …

Nowadays, the virtual prototyping method is widely used for industrial applications and can
lead to a powerful tool for musical instruments making and conservation. Nevertheless …

In string musical instruments, the sound is radiated by the soundboard, subject to the strings
excitation. This vibration of this rather complex structure is described here with models which …

In this paper, a new approach for the characterization of resonance wood is described. In
order to investigate how the wood microstructure influences final resonance performances …

In this paper, a method allowing the identification of two nonlinear systems in series is
presented. More precisely, the identification of the second nonlinear subsystem under test is …
