Abstract: A system and computer implemented method for determining and displaying vector acoustic intensity fields based on signals from a rigid spherical array of acoustic sensors within a volume external to the array. The method includes a propagator with a ratio of Green's functions for the location within the volume and for the spherical array radius, and a Tikhonov regularization filter that uses the Morozov discrepancy principle on the measured noise variance and Fourier coefficients of the measured partial pressures with respect to reference accelerometer or microphone measurements.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for holographically generating visual representations of acoustical characteristics of sound sources. A planar array has a lattice of microphone receiving points are disposed such that evanescent wave energy from the sources is detected along with propagating wave energy. The microphone outputs are sampled, resolved into phase and amplitude components, digitized and subjected to fast Fourier transform operations to provide computer graphic display means with holographic reconstruction parameters corresponding to the sources under analysis.

Abstract: Structure-borne intensities in a vibrating plate radiator having at least one source of vibration are measured without contacting the radiator by producing a pressure hologram of the pressure radiated from the surface of the radiator, determining the normal velocity of the radiator surface from the pressure hologram, and determining at least one component of the structure-borne intensity from the normal velocity.
