Structural Acoustics and Vibration Committee of the Acoustical
Society of America
Dr. Lonny Thompson has been elected to serve on the Structural
Acoustics and Vibration Committee of the Acoustical Society of
America. Term to year 2012. The chair of the committee is Dean E.
Capone.
Structural Acoustics and Vibration includes the study of
motions and interactions of mechanical systems with their
environments and the methods of their measurement, analysis, and
control. Principal topics considered are: 1. Responses of
mechanical systems to dynamic excitations, 2. Instrumentation,
including calibration techniques, for measurement and analysis of
shock and vibration, 3. Resonances of structures, 4. Damping and
internal friction, 5. Isolation of mechanical systems from shock
and vibration, 6. Mechanical impedance (mobility), 7. Modal
analysis, 8. Simulation of environmental factors, 9. Development
and application of analytical techniques, 10. Active control of
structural acoustics and vibration.
