Noisy neighbours : towards a hybrid prediction and testing process for sound insulating partitions (2021)
Journal Article
Whittle, G., Elliott, A., Meggitt, J., Wong-McSweeney, D., & Parsons, R. (2021). Noisy neighbours : towards a hybrid prediction and testing process for sound insulating partitions. https://doi.org/10.25144/13759

There are numerous methods for characterising sound insulating and impact noise reducing components and systems, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Two of the predominant modelling techniques for prediction of transmission loss through...

Fast transfer path analysis using controlled electric motors as in-situ blocked force vibration sources (2021)
Thesis
Wienen, K. (2021). Fast transfer path analysis using controlled electric motors as in-situ blocked force vibration sources. (Thesis). University of Salford

Under certain driving and road conditions, steering manoeuvres may provoke audible noise inside the vehicle compartment induced by the electric power steering (EPS) system. Regarding noise, vibration and harshness (NVH), engineers require practical t...

Generalised round-trip identity — for the determination of structural dynamic properties at locations inaccessible or too distant for direct measurement (2021)
Journal Article
Wienen, K., Sturm, M., Moorhouse, A., & Meggitt, J. (2021). Generalised round-trip identity — for the determination of structural dynamic properties at locations inaccessible or too distant for direct measurement. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 511, 116325. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2021.116325

In noise and vibration engineering, a structure’s passive dynamic properties are often quantified by frequency response functions (FRFs). This paper focuses on acquiring FRFs from experimental tests, considering both, translational (x, y, z) and rota...

Vibro-acoustic analysis of a domestic product based on experimental measurement and hybrid modelling (2021)
Journal Article
Meggitt, J., Banwell, G., Elliott, A., Moorhouse, A., & Langley, R. (2021). Vibro-acoustic analysis of a domestic product based on experimental measurement and hybrid modelling. Applied Acoustics, 182, 108144. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2021.108144

The purpose of this paper is to present a case study whereby a hybrid experimental-numerical model is used to analyse the structureborne radiation from a domestic product (vacuum cleaner head). The passive (including radiative) properties of the str... Read More about Vibro-acoustic analysis of a domestic product based on experimental measurement and hybrid modelling.

Component replacement TPA : a transmissibility-based structural modification method for in-situ transfer path analysis (2021)
Journal Article
Meggitt, J., Elliott, A., Moorhouse, A., Jalibert, A., & Franks, G. (2021). Component replacement TPA : a transmissibility-based structural modification method for in-situ transfer path analysis. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 499, 115991. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2021.115991

In-situ Transfer Path Analysis is a diagnostic method used to analyse the propagation of noise and vibration through complex built-up structures. Its defining feature is the invariant characterisation of an assembly’s active components (i.e. vibrat...
