    Structural radiation mode sensing for active control of sound radiation into enclosed spaces

    No full text
    In the recent article by Cazzolato and Hansen [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 104, 2878–2889 (1998)] it was shown that it is possible to derive for a structure some set of surfacevelocity distributions, referred to as radiation modes, which are orthogonal in terms of their contributions to the acoustic potential energy of a coupled cavity. The technique used an orthonormal decomposition to derive an expression for the radiation modes which was based on prior work for free-field sound radiation. It will be shown in the following letter that for the special case involving the calculation of global internal potential energy it is possible to use a simple approach which requires no orthonormal decomposition since the expression for the global potential energy is already in a form that can be easily diagonalized.Ben S. Cazzolato and Colin H. Hanse

    Power transmission from a vibrating body to a circular cylindrical shell through passive and active isolators

    The transmission of harmonic vibratory power from a vibrating rigid body into a thin supporting cylindrical shell through multiple passive and active isolators is investigated theoretically. The model allows for the transmission of vertical and horizontal harmonic forces and moments about all three coordinate axes. Results show that over a frequency range from 0 to 200 Hz, the real power transmission into the supporting shell can be reduced substantially by employing in parallel with existing passive isolators, active isolators adjusted to provide appropriate control force amplitudes and phases.Carl Q. Howard, Colin H. Hansen, and Jiaqiang Pa

    The Martin Hansen Story by James H. Wood

    No full text
    Notes - Mr. Jim Wood tells the story of his father-in law, Martin Hansen. Mr. Hansen's life begins in Denmark with his birth on February 13, 1888. He talks of his early farming career where he was made a foreman on a neighbour's farm at the age of sixteen. Mr. Hansen arrived in Athabasca on July 3rd, 1913. He shares many anecdotes of his life, including his service in WWI, his homesteading experience and his family life (3 pages
